January 16-19

Reading:  This week we worked on author's purpose. We also had a Latin/Greek test.  Most of the students did great on this test!  This week we have a spelling test.

Writing:  We started a new writing assignment this week.  It is a bit of a challenge for everyone.  We read two articles on how to keep kids fit. Now they have to write a paper about this subject.  They have to use evidence from the both texts to support their reasons in the paper.

Grammar:  We worked on comparative and superlative adjectives.

Projects:  We are continuing our projects on the life cycle.

** We are out of pencils.  If you could please donate some pencils to our class that would be great!
