Today was a busy day!
Language Arts:
Today we read our Real World Reading in our Basal. It is called Stealing Beauty. The story vocabulary words are as follows: dynasties, temples, heritage, preserve, and overjoyed. Our Common Core words are fact, opinion, inference, irregular plurals, title page, glossary, index, table of contents, culture, non-fiction article, and expository writing. Please make sure that your child knows these by the end of the week. The Common Core words will be added in their glossary in their binders a little each day.
