Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief Chapter 8

Directions: Answer the following question in your ELA notebook.  At the top of the page write "Chapter 8 Journal".  You must answer all of the questions and write at least 6 sentences.

Now that everyone knows who Percy’s father is, how will this change the way people at camp see him? Is it a good thing or a bad thing that Percy is the son of Poseidon? Why?

When you finish:  At the bottom of your journal, write your name using Greek letters.

This week, with our reading buddies, we helped teach them about different feelings!  We read them books and helped them figure out the feeling the characters had in the story.  Then, in groups we presented different feelings using posters and acting them out.

How We Express Ourselves!!

The past couple of weeks in Year 5, we have continued to work very hard and we have pushed forward to the new How We Express Ourselves PYP theme! . To connect to our PYP theme, we are reading Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief.  We will be learning about fantasy stories, Greek gods and goddesses, and much much more.  We  received our first pen pal letter from our friends in Malaysia!  It was very exciting to read about what life is like in their country and we are working on writing letters back to our pen pals.  We also have started our unit on decimals and have been working together to learn how to compare, order, find equivalent, round, and estimate decimals.  Here are some pictures from our classroom adventures!
