Generalizations: Day 4 (I can connect generalizations and my world.)

First: Generalization Review

Friday, everyone created their own generalization statement and justified what made it a generalization. Let's review these!

Here is another generalization video that a class created. 

Second: Comprehension Check

We are going to work on comprehension passage around the skill, comparing and contrasting. You will locate this article in Readworks. It is titled, Nothing to Lose. 

When you are finished, your passage should look something like this.

Third: Generalization Project, Phase 1 and 2

Phase 1:

This week we've learn all about generalizations. Today you are going to do the prep-work for your generalization project, "Generalizations in My World". I want you to think about your life. What are some generalizations that you notice in your world? They can be about any topic. Write these generalizations down in a notebook. The more you come up with the better and they must connect to your world! Tomorrow, we will start phase 3- putting these generalizations into a creation app. 

Phase 2:

Ask yourself, "What is one image I could link all my generalizations to?" then take a photo of it and email it to yourself. This image also needs to connect to you and your world. This will allow you to fall right into Phase 3 tomorrow. 

Fourth: Silent Reading
