- We read an article from Scientific American titled, "Fertilizer Runoff Overwhelms Streams and Rivers, Creating Vast Dead Zones."
- We identified key terms and new vocabulary, defining those new words using context clues.
- We paraphrased the main idea of the passage, brainstorming and pre-writing in preparation for our ERQ - Extended Response Question, which asked us to compose a letter to Governor Beshear suggesting a possible solution to address this problem.
- We will finish writing the ERQ in the near future.
Today was an Early Release Day (ERD) with classes shortened to just 30 minutes. We made valuable use of our time by incorporating literacy practice into our content curriculum.
