Reading and ELA for the Week of September 15-19

Greetings!  Here is an overview of our next few weeks.  I am also including some Quizlets that will help your child with studying for tests.  As always, if you have questions or concerns please let me know.

ELA:  We are finishing up our first published piece.  Students have been writing their opinion about a certain topic.  They were to then back up their opinion with valid reasons.  We have also been working with compound sentences and conjunctions.  We will have a quiz on conjunctions and compound sentences on Friday.

Reading:  We are continuing to work on comparing and contrasting story elements.  This week we are focusing on comparing and contrasting the setting.  Students will have to provide evidence from the text to support their answers.  We also will kick off a new root this week.  For the next seven days we will work with the root super and sur.  We will test on these words on Wednesday, September 24th.  The words are:
  • supervise
  • supermarket
  • surtax
  • superior
  • supersize
  • survive
  • surplus
  • supernatural
  • superman  
  • surpass
N.E.W (No Excuse Words)
  • remember
  • divide
  • locate
  • correct

Here are some Quizlets that may help with studying.
