Week 3
Homework: GTE p.10-11 (Due Friday)
We continued learning about characters in stories this week and created our own characters! We used AI to practice describing characters and focused on the importance of using more details in our writing. We also went to the rooftop for some reading on Thursday afternoon - the weather was amazing up there and the class were locked in to their books!

Week 2
Homework: GTE p.8-9 Presentation from the lesson
This week we wrapped up learning about settings, and then started talking about characters in stories. We had a lot of fun creating our own settings using AI. We also had some really great discussions about settings, too! Have a look at some of the wild settings that we created together in class!
I also want you to remember that when you create a setting for a story, the more detail you add, the more your readers will be able to picture what you are trying to describe. It's just like telling AI - the more detail we give, the more details will show up in the pictures that get generated!
Next week, we are going to learn all about characters and even create our own!

Week 1
Tuesday and Thursday Homework: GTE p.5-6 (due Friday) Presentation from the lesson
This term, we're going to learn all about stories. We will talk about where stories happen, who is in them, what happens in them, and what they mean.
Our first lesson is about the setting. The setting is where and when a story takes place. We also learned how to talk about settings by describing the time, the landscape, the weather, and the characters or people who are there.
For homework, you get to create your very own Story World! We practiced this in class, and I showed you how to fill out the organizer on page 5. On page 6, you can draw a picture of your world—that's your setting! In our next lesson, we will share our Story Worlds with the class. It’s going to be fun!
Have a look at the presentation by clicking the link above. There's a special Blooket at the end for those of you who are visiting now!
