Today was a difficult day in grammar. We are working on action and linking verbs which is an area we have covered in the fall of this school year. There will be a review quiz tomorrow on subject/predicate/action/linking verbs. Period 1 has workbook page 234 to complete for workbook. Period 2 has 2 worksheets to complete: 1 on action/linking verbs and the other on onomatopoeia. All periods have the mysterious animal research project due on Monday February 26. Students were asked since February 13th to find an animal they found mysterious. Directions were sent home today with each student. There will be a reading test on Friday, The Man Who Named the Clouds. Study vocabulary and graphic sources. There will be a grammar test on Tuesday. Have a great week! Mrs. Herring
