There will be statements and the students will need to match them to : thoughts; words;feelings;choices;or actions. The "key" clue is the given verb.
Example- Did the character "say" something? words
Did the character "do" something? actions
Did the character "feel" something? feelings
The multiple choice section will have statements and the students must infer the character trait.
Students should review the "Feelings VS. Traits" anchor chart and "Character Traits Synonyms" anchor chart.
On Tuesday, we will begin our unit on text structure. This will include : sequencing; compare & contrast; description;cause & effect; and problem & solution.
Vocabulary Unit 3 will begin on Monday. Students will bring home their 4 flashcards to study nightly. On Friday there will be a vocabulary quiz on the meaning of the words.
We are continuing to work on punctuating dialogue and re-test on Thursday. Last week's punctuation test will come home Monday. Please review your child's test to see what they are not punctuating correctly. Example- Are they forgetting the comma? Do they know that the punctuation goes "inside the quotation marks? Are they identifying the "tag" correctly? These are the rules that we have been identifying daily.
Have a wonderful weekend! I look forward to meeting with you during conference week.
