What's happening in class?

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving vacation!

The week of November 28th through December 1st will be a busy one!

In L.A., we will be continuing our unit 3 verb unit.  We will be covering inverted and interrupted subject-verb agreement, and the tricky verbs, rise, raise, lay, lie, sit, set, bring, take, let, leave, lend, and loan.  On Wednesday, we'll be reviewing for our unit three test, and Thursday, will be the final verb test.

In reading, we will be choosing a new book report book, a free choice fiction novel.  Students will have three weeks to read their books, and the creative book report will be explained in detail at a later date. 

The final test for Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie was last week. and most students did a great job on it!  This week we will begin our next novel, The Cay.  It's a survival story based on a young boy who is lost at sea after a ship wreck, and is stranded on an island with only an older blind man and a cat to help him.  Stay tuned to see how the story unfolds..........

Here's to a great week!
