Dear parents,

All your children were engaged in today's lesson about Inventions. We had many interesting conversations about important inventions in the lives of your children and discussions about inventions they did know a lot about (e.g.: wind shield wipers).

Your children are a joy to teach.

We covered the following literacy concepts for today's lesson:

1) Genres: Biography

2) Key/New Vocabulary

3) Connections: text-to-self and text-to-world

4) Metaphors

5) Mind Map / Idea Web: 'Inventions'
