This week we began the Porcupine Year. It is wonderful to see the students enjoying the book so much. Numerous students commented on the maturity of the characters and their ability to understand the world in such a unique and detailed way.
In Spelling/Vocabulary we continue our study of Classical Roots. Our theme this week was creativity.
3rd and 4th Grade MUR:
We continue to work our way through A Murder for Her Majesty. As we near the climax of the book students are making connections and predictions as to the outcome of our main character's fate. In our packets students are working on clear topic sentences to their higher level thinking questions. We have completed our character sort and Alice's Daily Schedule.
In Spelling/Vocabulary we completed Wordly Wise Lesson 10. Students need to continue working with their spelling word meanings.
