This Week: Science Friction

Post date: Nov 11, 2019 12:34:16 PM

This week the grade 6 class will be reading "Science Friction" by David Lubar. This story is a funny look at how collaborative work can work even with people with very different personalities, skills, and talents. This selection is always a popular one with the children. This story is part collection of short stories in the book Tripping Over the Lunch Lady and Other School Stories . We will begin looking at persuasive writing this week. Little by little this month, the students will learn the basic parts, organization, and strategies for writing a standard five paragraph persuasive essay. This is a writing skill will serve them them as long as they in school. It isn't the funnest writing assignment, but it is one of the most valuable that I teach this year. I hope all of the students try their best to master it. This week students will practice supporting their opinions with facts and examples from a text. Below is the weekly handout for this week . You can also find a slideshow for learning the vocabulary words. Please help your child review the spelling and vocabulary words. Also, don't forget those WIRSFs on Tuesday.

Journeys 6th Grade Lesson 8: Science Friction Supplements with GOOGLE Classroom

• Google Apps™

Also included in

Description

This supplemental pack is aligned to the Journeys 2011/2012, 2014, and 2017 curriculum for 6th grade. Upon opening the zip file, simply select the lesson that matches the publication year of your curriculum.

This Journeys Grade 6 supplemental pack is created to supplement Unit 2, Lesson 8 (Science Friction). The reading responses, activities, and interactive notebook pages focus on the Reading Literature and Language sections of the curriculum.

ONLINE LEARNING: This Journeys pack now includes GOOGLE slides for online learning, compatible with GOOGLE Classroom. The link to the remote learning pages are on the second page of the resource.

PAPER & PENCIL LEARNING: This Journeys pack was originally designed as paper and pencil practice pages and interactive notebook pages. It can still be printed and used in this way!

These pages were designed to be engaging to students, yet rigorous. The fonts are interesting but easy to read, interactive notebook pages are included, and students are given opportunities to color and cut & paste. Students must have access to the text as they work, as many pages require text evidence.

Students love these interactive pages! Don't worry if you do not use Interactive Notebooks in your classroom. The interactive pages in this lesson can be glued onto notebook paper or construction paper. You can even staple a "notebook" of lined paper for them to use with their Journeys lessons! They'll love this new way of demonstrating their learning.

Interactive Pages:

• Conclusions and Generalizations – interactive notebook (2014/2017)

• Sequence of Events – interactive notebook (2011/2012)

• Characters’ Motivations – interactive notebook

• Vocabulary Definitions – interactive notebook

Reading Literature & Informational Text supplements:

• Conclusions and Generalizations – Students complete the table, drawing conclusions and making generalizations. Students give the text evidence and their own experiences that influenced their conclusions and generalizations. (2014/2017)

• Conclusions and Generalizations: Text Evidence – Students provide text evidence for each conclusion and generalization.(2014/2017)

• Sequence of Events - Students write the sequence of the most important events as they read. (2011/2012)

• Summary Writing - Students use the sequence of events to write a story summary. (2011/2012)

• Making Predictions – Students make predictions as they read. They note the page number and story events that influenced each prediction.

• Making Inferences - Students make inferences as they read. They note the page number and story events that influenced each inference.

• Characters’ Motivations: Character Trait Map - Students analyze Amanda and her motivations. They complete a Character Map, determining two character traits that best describe her, as well as text evidence to support each trait. (This is a bonus skill not included in the 2011/2012 teacher's manual.)

• Science Friction Text Questions – Students answer text-dependent questions. They need access to the text in order to provide evidence for their thinking.

• Growing Mold Text Questions - Students answer text-dependent questions. They need access to the text in order to provide evidence for their thinking.

Language Supplements:

• Dictionary Definitions and Sentence Writing - Students complete the table, using the glossary to define each vocabulary word. Then, they write sentences using the vocabulary words, showing they understand each word’s meaning.

• Vocabulary: Using Context Clues - Students use context clues to complete each sentence with the correct vocabulary word.

• Vocabulary: Antonyms - Students match each vocabulary word to its antonym.

• Spelling List – 2 to a page, to be printed and cut apart
