Homework:
Planner Signed 9/30
Read 30 minutes
Language Arts: Memorize the first 31 prepositions. Quiz: 10/4.
FYI: In class, we are focusing on sentence structure. Students are learning to recognize complete and incomplete sentences. They are also working on identifying complete subject, complete predicate, simple subject, simple predicate, prepositions, and prepositional phrases. A solid understanding of sentences leads to writing better paragraphs, which will then lead to writing better essays and reports.
Reading: Signed Progress Reports with any missing assignments stapled to it will be due tomorrow, Thursday. Students were instructed on ways to improve their comprehension scores on assessments. Many students and parents had questions as to why their grade is "low". First of all, there are only 5 or 6 questions, so missing two pulls the grade down. I encouraged students to pay careful attention to sentences, spelling, and rereading questions for the written answers. Multiple choice questions need to be thoroughly read at least 2 times, crossing out impossible answers. Last, make sure all questions have been answered, not left blank or unanswered.
Vocab WS 53+62, Spelling WS 59+60 due 9/30.
