NJASK Narrative Task (from 2014)

NJASK Narrative Task:

"Sam is a huge sports fan.  She has bins full of equipment.  As she pulls out one of the bins to look for a soccer ball, she is totally surprised by what she finds inside.  It's something she's never seen before.

Write a story about what Sam finds and what happens next."

Here's where we'll be editing!

Paste your Draft #3 Below:

The form below is only for your Draft #1 and #2...

When enough people have submitted their responses, I'll activate the link to the below spreadsheet where we'll all give feedback to each other...

Mrs. Colontrelle's PARCC PBA Research Simulation Task (RST)

I've given all who submitted their work feedback on your CRs, so click on the screenshot below ê:

Next week the PARCC will be here for real.  Let's see how well this class can follow directions...

1. First, go to this page and download the document when you see this symbol at the top of the screen ê:

2. Read both articles using the links in the doc above--the Newsela article has both strikethroughs and purple highlighting where you're not supposed to read.  (Be sure to read the first few paragraphs and the last few paragraphs that don't have highlighting and strikethroughs.)

3. Then read the CR and create your response in Notes.

4. Then copy your response from Notes and paste it into the Google Form below using just your class number and initials. ê

5. After several people have submitted their form, you'll find a link here that will take you to another doc where you'll be asked to give feedback to someone's response. ê

Hi Fifth Graders,

Some of you put a lot of effort into your responses on this PARCC practice run-through, and some of you really need to invest more time and effort into responding.

I've created feedback for you in your class folder--please feel free to ask any questions you might have about the prompt, RACES, your feedback, or even how you were supposed to use the sources provided on the PARCC exam.

Thanks,
Mr. Ferrante

P.S.: Just to remind everyone, the prompt was:

"Compare how the articles by Lauren Tarshis and Dyan deNapoli and the video describe penguin rescue efforts after oil spills. Support your essay with information from all three sources."
