Week 5 Assignments

Congratulations!   Cy, Michelle, Shane, Meghan, Isabel and Joshua for mastering Chart A!

Keep copying.  You will be glad you did.

EEL
Daily Practice Sentence (#1-5) 
Analytical Task Sheet (tasks 1-4) -- Older students may include Task 5.
Week 5 EEL editing exercises
Copying and Memorizing Charts A,B,C,D,E,&F

Important Note:
If you child has already mastered Chart A (proven in class), they may write out their next chart from memory at home and bring it to class.  I will accept the level of memorized work you require for your home and we will add a piece to their "Grammar Puzzle".  I hope this will help with the time issue.  The goal is to get the information into their heads.  


IEW
The assignment this week is a 3 paragraph story.  However, FIRST year students may combine paragraphs 2 & 3 into one paragraph.  So the entire assignment ends up being a 2 paragraph story rather than 3 paragraphs. 
Complete KWO, brainstorming, and rough draft using the Rough Checklists.
1st paragraph & KWO is on page 24 of the US History Student Bk. with brainstorming activity to help with action verbs, -LY words, & quality adjectives on page 25.
2nd & 3rd paragraph & KWO is on page 26 of Student Bk.  If you are going to combine the 2 paragraphs then use the KWO and rough checklist for paragraph 3.    The brainstorming activities for these paragraphs are on page 27. 

RECAP:
This week, write a 2 or 3 paragraph rough draft.
Next week we will edit the rough draft, add more detail, and write the final copy using the Final Checklist in Lesson Six.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
