What a beautiful day!
Language Arts:
Today was a productive one. After specials, we got busy working on our grammar skill of the week which is singular and plural nouns with their specific spelling rules. We also worked on putting commas in sentences with a series of nouns. We finished up our grammar time by working on a page in our workbook that deals with mechanics. We started p. 42 which is homework if it was not completed during our class time.
During our handwriting time, we worked on joining letters together using both the under curve and the down ward curve. I am still impressed with how beautiful their cursive is already! We worked on pages 20-23. These are also homework if they were not completed in class.
During our writing portion of our morning, the students were asked to complete their diamante poetry that we started on Friday. While some students started typing these, others were just finishing them up. I can't wait to display these soon.
We ended our morning with listening to a chapter in our read aloud and reviewing the RIT words. The students will be told tomorrow that they will have a quiz over them on Monday.
Homework:
***Weekly- due Friday
***Handwriting- Pages 20-23(If not finished in class)
***Grammar-Page 42- (If this was not finished in class)
