next few weeks learning how
punctuation can empower written
communication.

Reading: We will be working in small
groups on reading skills and
strategies.  Specifically, students will
be improving their ability to cite
examples from text to support statements
and answers.  We are also working on
fluency strategies.

Vocab: List 9: juxtapose, scrutinize,
exaggerate, vegetate, fertilize, exclude,
cognate, embrace, contrive, entire.
Activities:  1 and Application WS.

Science: We are coming to the end

the library until June 19.

Art: Students continue studying elements

and depth.


 
Students are creating a real Humdinger.

I invite and encourage you to check out the "discussion" page.  However, I would like to give a few guidelines in order for me to post your responses: 
Please use at least a first name (real, of course), focus on the discussion topic (not on the contributors, unless it is germane to the topic), and please try your best to use correct grammar, punctuation and spelling (not IM grammar).
