In Language Arts today the students analyzed the directions for a more complicated Text Dependent Analysis. We also spent time talking about what we would do next if we were to actually follow the directions.
The students also spent time talking about apostrophes and how to use them in our writing.
Lastly, we looked at vocabulary words from “The Prince and the Pauper”. Each student was assigned a different part of the word to analyze. Students with blue paper wrote the term, students with red paper wrote the definition, yellow paper is for the part of speech, green paper is for synonyms, pink paper is for the in context and the white paper is for the visual. The students will be given a few minutes at the beginning of class to finish this and then they will present their vocabulary to the class with their tablemates.
Retakes for the Unit Three Test will be offered on Thursday before school at 7:15 or after school at 3:00. Students need to sign up in class and have a note signed from a parent/guardian stating that they can attend the retake. The tests the students take in class allow them to check their answer three times and still receive credit for answering the question correctly. The retake will not be set up this way. If a question is incorrect, there will be no second chance at answering it correctly.
Have a great evening!
