Week of October 22nd

Just to clarify Spell Check - all students in my class have to take the test (end of next week) because these are words 4th graders are expected to be able to spell, but the pledge is voluntary.

Thursday Homework

Reread chapters 2 and 3 in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Think about how we reread Chapter 1 this morning and used post it notes to record the language (words, sentences) that described the setting. This time you are to focus on characters. For Chapter 2 look for language in the text that helps you have a mental picture of the Headless Horseman. For Chapter 3 do the same for Ichabod Crane. The key here is finding the words the author uses to help you imagine the character.  Use a different post-it note for each page and leave the note on the page.

Math - Reflex.  There are still way too many low usage reports.
