Unit of inquiry:
Today we reviewed what the three main focuses of media are 1) to inform the audience 2) to persuade/convince the audience 3) to entertain the audience. We looked at the Media in a day tally and discussed what we saw/heard a lot of, what we didn't really see, and what was one that stuck in our mind. We then discussed where/how/why we saw the different forms. As a class we then watched a t.v. commercial and discussed which of the three main focuses the commercial had. We also discussed how different types of media can use 1 or 2 or all three of the main focuses. We then listened to a radio commercial and again discussed discussed which of the three main focuses the commercial had.
Language:
Students in grade one: Practised putting their new learned spelling words into use, they used them to fill in sentences based on their meaning, words that begin with and end with the same sounds, opposites and rhyming.
Students in grade two: Practised putting their new learned spelling words into use by filling in a crossword with clues, writing a short blurb using some of the words and using the word meanings to fill in the blanks.
