L.A.

-Punctuation, spelling and capitals will be our focus through the use of our agendas (accuracy in copying messages that model good writing form) and we will also pursue this worthy self-editing goal soon in our personal dictionary/spellers.

-P.A.R.I.S.

-Novel Study: Hatchet by Gary Paulsen.  We will review last day’s work by sharing the questions that we created individually based on the events of chapter 17.  We will read chapter 18 as a class and then look for examples of onomatopoeia and record them in a chart.  Chapter 19, the last chapter in the novel, and the epilogue will conclude our study of Hatchet.

F.L.A.

-School: We will continue to write school subjects in brief, easy sentences using the conjugated verb, AIMER.

-French is taught using the four modes/skills of learning.  This means that all students have the opportunity to learn through listening, speaking, reading and writing.
