This week will be devoted to Vocabulary # 11 (pages 138 -144), The introduction of diagramming sentences and the handing out of To Kill a Mockingbird, which will be our next novel. Also, there will be a school-wide Spelling Bee on Thursday, January 9 in the gym at 2:50.
Monday: Vocabulary #11 for the first 10 minutes. We will introduce diagramming of sentences by having a review of the parts of a sentence. I realize some students may have a "bad taste" in their mouths about diagramming sentences, but I assure you, they will feel more and more confident as the weeks move forward. A copy of **To Kill a Mockingbird will be distributed to all students. Homework will be to complete the vocabulary (pages 138-144).
Tuesday: Blocks 2,3 and 5 will go over the vocabulary homework. We will have students come up to the board to begin some diagramming of sentences. There may be a handout to be completed for homework. Students will, also, be responsible to keep on task with the required readings of To Kill a Mockingbird.
Wednesday: Blocks 2 and 3 will review vocabulary words for the quiz on Friday. They will continue with diagramming practice and introduction to the novel To Kill a Mockingbird. Block 6 will go over the vocabulary homework and do Tuesday's class work.
Thursday: Blocks 5 and 6 will review for the vocabulary quiz on Friday. The rest of the class will practice diagramming of sentences and continue with To Kill a Mockingbird
Friday: Vocabulary # 111 quiz. We will, catch up on To Kill a Mockingbird, if needed.
**To Kill a Mockingbird will be discussed (chapter by chapter) in class. It is imperative that ALL students stay on task and keep up with the daily, required reading of the novel.
