Hi! I went home sick yesterday, Monday, so I'm a little late this week.
LANGUAGE ARTS
This week's spelling words are commonly misspelled, and can be tricky. They are: accept, except, separate, terrible, terror, Tuesday, Wednesday, wouldn't, cents, since.
The students are to put them in sentences for tomorrow. Spelling test on Friday.
We began a novel study on the graphic novel Bone by Jeff Smith. You can read about the series at this website: http://www.scholastic.com/bone/ . (Please understand: in this case, "graphic" doesn't mean what it does on other occasions.) The 6 questions at the end of Bone #1: Out from Boneville are due next Wednesday. The students have been given a duotang which contains the questions, and will help them answer those questions.
MATH
We have been working on triangles and parallelograms. Questions 1-7 on p.145 are due tomorrow. They began them yesterday in class, and we continued them today.
