Corven's Language Arts Class-Week of April 2nd

READING
       Students will read The Homecoming this week in class. The Homecoming is a short story from our Literacy Place Book. Using this story, the students will review story elements and identify types of figurative language used by the author. There will be a comprehension quiz over the story on Thursday.

WRITING
The students began a rough draft of an original Tall Tale before spring break. Students will continue the writing process of their Tall Tale this week in class. Each Tall Tale should include an example of at least four different types of figurative language. The final copy is due on Thursday.

GRAMMAR
The students will work on Daily Language activities each day in class.

SPELLING
There are no spelling assignments this week. We will spend time in class reviewing words that are commonly misspelled in the students' writing.
