Mission Reports

Mission reports... that's what we're writing in Room 8! We're also studying missions by working in mission groups. We started off reading out of the textbook...learning why missions were started in the first place... then we divided into groups to learn more...and now we're also writing our reports. Serenity

Each student was able to pick which mission (there are 21) they wanted to write about. Some picked a mission they had visited, some picked the same mission their parent had written a report on when they were in 4th grade, and some just picked a mission!Abby

Each student was given a packet of articles on their mission.

As they read each article, they stop after each paragraph and ask, 'What important information did I just read?' At that point, they write notes, not sentences, in the appropriate square.

Each Room 8er was given a piece of paper divided into fourths on each side. Each section is titled, Beginnings and Location; Buildings; Indians; Crops and Crafts; etc.

After their notes are complete, they will have the notes already divided into paragraphs for their report. We've practiced taking notes in class all year, and specifically practiced for this project on Mission La Purisima.

Mission Notes...

Room 8 is really enjoying Missions. When it's time, you'll hear multiple Room 8ers say, "OH BOY! It's time for MISSIONS!"

Music to my ears!
