Patrick typed more of his written piece about going to play Paintball. He is working on keeping his eyes on his paper, while hitting the correct keys. At times, he loses his place so it will take some practice. In FF, he broke another one of his high scores. In LB, Patrick almost completed reading his book. He has a few pages left. Today we discussed authors craft. Specifically, we examined the way the author creatively wrote sentences in order to provide images for the reader. Patrick did a great job using the context to determine word meanings, such as graze, glide, coast, etc. It was a fruitful lesson today, and Patrick was very attentive and shared his thoughts.
