On Friday I gave you a Summer Journal. Please think of this as a fun treat and not summer homework. Do whatever you want with it but I promise if you fill it with memories, you will enjoy it so much in the future! Writing down goals is also a good way to make them come true! BRING this journal everyday this week!
Homework this week: Perfect your Historic Site building (to bring to Exhibition!) and improve your Exhibition station.
Today you have 4 assignments.
- Spend about 2-3 hours finishing ALL 10 comic pages. You will have 1 extra strip on page ten. Use this last strip to write about the true story of when Karana left the island. Then design a rough draft of the cover. We will make a final draft in class.
*If you are missing a blank page for some reason, please email me. TOMORROW you will be binding and making a cover. - Spend 1-2 hours going through your summer journal and filling out some pages. Think about all you have learned this year and decide how you will answer your time capsule page (the first page, but don’t answer that page yet because we will do that in class). Write about your memories from 4th grade, decide your goals for the summer, research some books you want to read, map your travels, and HAVE FUN. I made this gift for you to enjoy and keep your memories, so do whatever you want with this and be proud of your awesome achievements this year!
- Go to GClass and write about what station you want to be at for Exhibition. Explain how you will improve what you learned.
- Spend the rest of your time working on your historic site building (and essay. If you have not finished sending me a letter from last Thursday’s virtual, please do that today and we will discuss your essay tomorrow). Check out pictures and make some IMPROVEMENTS on your site. This is the last step of the Engineering Design Process and probably the most important! Why do you think that is? Think about the iPhone X. Did Apple stop before the improvement step? Did the Hawaiians, locals, and even volcanoes that built your site never improve? You should too!
