MONDAY: TEACHER FEEDBACK BEING PUT TO USE!

10/21/2013

Today, the students individually shared their passion paragraphs with me and I gave them feedback on their paragraphs. Most students will have to add transition words to their paragraphs and they will use the list in their binders to do this. In addition to this, most students will also have to add adjectives to create better images.

LEARNING INTENTION: To use the feedback given to me by my teacher to improve my paragraphs.

1.) LA/PASSION TRAILERS:

If you haven't completed your passion paragraphs, be sure to complete your first drafts. Many of you are already working on your first round of edits/revisions.

2.) ART:

We will be starting soapstone art tomorrow afternoon.
Make sure your materials are at school tomorrow - apron or old t-shirt, toothbrush, rubber gloves, and a plastic bag to store all your materials.
Click here to download a copy of the waiver. If you are one of the students who has not returned this, be sure to do so.
If you are one of the students who hasn't returned your permission form, be sure to have your parents write a short note to me giving you permission to participate.

3.) POST A RESPONSE:

Do a little research and post an example of a detrivore and a decomposer. Be sure to explain why each organism/animal is considered a detrivore and/or decomposer.
Be sure to briefly explain why your organisms are considered detrivores and decomposers.
Include a link of where you found your information.

A worm is a decomposer because people put them in gardens to break stuff down. A woodlice is a detrivore because it eats rotten plants.

@ ButterflyPuppy - Please post a link from YouTube of one of the things you learned about today. For example, a consumer, herbivore, omnivore, carnivore, detrivore, or decomposer.

Also, post an example of a decomposer or detrivore. Be sure to explain why your animal/organism is considered to be one of these.

snake's are detrevores and carnivores because often times it will eat a animal that is alive but if it has to it will eat dead decomposing prey. moulding is a decomposer because you can connect to this probably but what happened often is some people leave their lunch in a locker like a sandwich for over a couple days and it will eventually mold this is what I mean by mold being a decomposer.

@Destiny1445- I agree with you but I think that you can add a detrivore.

A detrivore is a sea star, because they eat dead fish and algee along the ocean floor.

A decomposer is mood, because they eat away at dead things/dying things like food.

An example of detrivore is a crab an example of aecomposer is fruit rotting on the ground.

An example of a Detrivore is a earth worm because earth worms eat large bits of dead and decaying plants and insects. An example of a decomposer is a apple because when it falls off the tree it starts to rot and ants eat away at it.

Crows are a good example of a detrivore and the reason they are considered detrivores are because they eat decaying animals.

Bugs and fungi are considered a decomposer because it decomposes things like wood and sandwiches really next to anything
