Reading March 9, 2009

We have been working on reading comprehension the last two weeks. I will be sending home graded papers at the end of this week. We did not have a reading log last week and will not again this week. Reading logs will be due again after report cards go home. Homework will be on the blog when it is due.

Wow! We've had a lot of people out this week. I hope that everyone is recovering quickly. We have studied possessive nouns this week and next week we'll go into a writing activity about maps. We will be using our interactive graphic orgaznizer for that exercise.

Tonight is Curriculum Night  and I hope all of you are able to come to view our classroom technology.

We will be having a quiz on our vocabulary words tomorrow. We will briefly review definitions before the quiz. The words can be found on my blog from this Monday. Clip on the underlined blue "download vocabulary" and you will have a copy of the words and their definitions. 


Homework:  Study for vocabulary quiz

February 2, 2009 Reading

We will begin to work in our Rewards program today to help decoding multisyllabic words along with their vocabulary. I have not decided how I will post vocabulary for these units at this time. We will be working with prefixes and suffixes and their meanings. I'll keep you posted as how this will be handled if it will mean additional homework. Please remember that Wednesday is another short day as it is our Early Release day.  We will continue our Reading Logs this week.


Homework:  Reading Logs due Monday, February 9.
