***THERE ARE NO LIVE MEETINGS FOR THIS CLASS.*** In this 4 week FLEX course, students will travel back in time to the 1870s in a magic tree house with siblings, Jack and Annie from Frogcreek, Pennsylvania. In this class, we will be reading Mary Pope Osbourne's Twister on Tuesday. This class will be a mix of reading, answering comprehension questions and completing a Minecraft-build related to what they are reading in the story. Each week, students will read a few chapters from Twister...
Students will build their love for reading! Students will also improve their comprehension skills as they read and build what they are learning!
I have been playing Minecraft for years and can speak the "language". As your child creates their story-related Minecraft build, I will offer inspiration and suggestions as needed through our weekly discussion in the classroom.
Homework Offered
Each week students will read a portion of our story, answer comprehension questions and complete a Twister on Tuesday - related Minecraft build to be assigned each week. Students will share a screen shot of their Minecraft build in the classroom. This homework will require time for reading, completing the comprehension questions and completing the build. Depending on your child's reading level and time spent to complete the questions and the Minecraft build, homework can take anywhere from 1-2 hours to complete. But, Minecraft-ing is the fun part and it won't seem like homework! (Shhh ... it might even be fun!)1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
