Firchau: Language Arts (Week of December 12 & 19)

READING
This week we will continue reading Bridge to Terabithia.  We will focus our guided reading on how the setting of a story can influence the plot, plot sequence, and language's influence on senses and mood.  Check your student's agenda for daily assignments.


WRITING
Last week the students learned the correct way to punctuate dialogue. This week they will apply what they learned about the use of quotation marks as they narrate a scene from The Snowman. The narrations will be due on Monday, December 19th. There will be time in class this week for the students to work on this writing assignment.

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

SPELLING
Spelling words from the first two chapters of Bridge to Terabithia will be assessed on Tuesday, not Monday, as previously posted.
