Illustrated Vocabulary

The past two days the students have been working to illustrate 13 vocabulary words from Chapter 3, Section 1 in our textbook. The vocabulary words are difficult to illustrate, so the kids really have to think about what each word means.  This is more important than simply memorizing a list of words for a test that will be forgotten after the test is taken. 

I was out of the room on Tuesday and Wednesday, so I'm not sure of the progress that has been made. Tomorrow we will be back on track.  I LOVE Chapter 3; it addresses culture and economy.  We will be taking a test over this chapter,but don't worry yet!  We just started the chapter so I have NO time frame. As we get close to taking the test, I will let you know.  We will actually have a project to wrap up the culture and economy concepts, too.

There is no homework, so enjoy the evening.
