No home learning until September 3!
We are going to begin an exciting reading initiative in Grade 5 on September 1, called ‘Read around the world’.
We are asking you to read books that have something to do with another country. This could be a book specifically written about a country or culture (in the present or in the past), books written by an author from another country, or be a book about someone who lives in another country. This will encourage you to read (most importantly), read a variety of books, to read books from all over the world, and maybe learn a little about other cultures besides your own.
We want you to read both fiction and non-fiction books, and can read books in English, your mother tongue, or another language. As long as understanding takes place, we are all good with that!
To this end, you are being issued with a ‘Global Traveler Passport‘
After each book you should enter the book information into the pages.
There are 5 pages where titles of books can be entered. If for some reason you should run out of pages, we can always add more, just like in a real passport!
Mr Byrne has begun a list of books available in the ES Sabina Library,
Here is a link to a list of books that Mr. Byrne has very kindly begun to put together for us to set you on your way. Grade 5 Read around the world (These are just fiction books for now).
If the link does not work, copy and paste this address into your browser.
http://destiny.wab.edu/cataloging/servlet/presentbooklistform.do?listID=3595115&=site100
Please encourage each other to read books and fill in your passports! Read ! We will check these passports on a Friday, to see who is the most well traveled! 
This initiative will end on November 30.
Have fun!
Lines breaks are a poetry technique used to emphasize different parts of the poem.
Your task:
1. Read “Line Break Poem” from Locomotion
2. Discuss and record the purpose of line breaks with your class.
3. Your teacher will give you cut up copies of “Snow Poem“. With a partner decide where the line breaks should go and glue the pieces to a piece of A4 paper.
4. Share what yours with the class by reading aloud.
5. Your teacher will now share the original Snow Poem.
