Week #7

Reading: This week we worked on using evidence based terms when answering a question.  We read books and then discussed how to answer the question using evidence from the book.

We took a LG test. There will be a spelling test on 10/26. Make sure your child is studying!

Writing: The students are writing about which animal they think is the best.  They have done research to support their opinion. They are working on putting their opinion and the facts they have found together.  

Grammar:  The students learned that every sentence has a subject and a predicate.  Also, each sentence has a simple subject and predicate. We practiced finding the subject and predicate in sentences.

Projects: The students are finishing up their Nevada Symbols books.  Most have started their 51st State Project.  They are creating the 51st state.  I can't wait to see how creative they get with this project.
