Reading: This week in reading we started learning about text structure. This is how the author organized the text. We will continue with this next week.
The students received new Latin/Greek words this week. They also had a spelling test. They will receive their new words on the 29th. Some of the groups will have the same patterns or words because the students did not do well on the test this time. Remember to help them practice their spelling words and new pattern.
Writing: The students continued working on their country reports. We are almost finished with these. They have learned a lot of interesting information. The students also worked on an opinion piece throughout the week to help bring up their opinion writing score.
Grammar: We reviewed the different types of sentences: simple, compound and complex. We also reviewed coordinating and subordinating conjuntions.
Projects: The students continued working on their country project.
Misc: It is already almost the end of the 3rd quarter! Be on the lookout for information about conferences.
Don't forget to order a yearbook!
