In Language Arts today the students took their Greek and Latin Root Quiz. Most students did very well and I was pleased with their scores!
The students also read chapter 8 of The Giver. If they did not finish this in class, it was assigned as homework.
Lastly, we spent time in class reviewing the meaning of words from The Giver, discussing the jobs the people who live their have and how that relates to our society, and the Milestones the children have in The Giver. If students did not complete these portions in class, it was assigned as homework.
We will be done with Read Theory for the year on Friday, May 31st. The students should have passed 45 Read Theory Quizzes from April 8th through May 31st. If they have passed 45 quizzes by May 31st, they will receive full credit for Read Theory for 4th Marking Period. The students also should have passed 185 quizzes from September 10th through May 31st. If students have done this, they will receive full credit for Read Theory for the year which will positively impact their year long average. I will not be grading any Read Theory completed after May 31st at 1:55pm.
Have a great evening!
