Week of September 27, 2010

Hello All! Six more days until our Fall Break arrives and we have much to cover! We'll be working on our Lesson 9 spelling words which stress vowel-consonant-consonant-consonant-vowel (vcccv) patterns. Spelling pretests are given each Monday and posttests are assessed on Fridays (if needed). Our grammar lesson explores prepositions and independent/dependent clauses. We have had and will continue to have interactive fun with our prepositions throughout the week! Lastly, we'll be creating biographies in class as part of a writing assignment. We hope to utilize www.readwritethink.org and our mobile laptop computers as we interview each other along the way to complete our writings. Have a safe and restful break!
