WEEK OF: November 18th - 22nd, 2013


* In Grammar, we are working on Irregular Plural Nouns.  A singular noun names one person, place, or thing.  A plural noun names more than one person, place, or thing.  An “Irregular Plural Noun” does not add an –s, -es, or –ies. They do not follow the rules.  They create a new word or may not change at all.  We will have a Grammar test on Thursday 11/21/13.

 

*Our Reading story is “Prudy’s Problem”.  Our main character Prudy has a problem but her friends and family help her solve it.  You can listen by clicking on this link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30012488/READING%20STORIES/UNIT%202%20STORIES/03%20Prudy%27s%20Problem%20and%20How%20She%20Solved%20It%20%28Fantasy%29.mp3

 

* Our next Spelling list (Compound Words)  snglasses,  football,  homework,  haircut,  popcorn,  railroad, snowstorm, earring, scarecrow, blueberry, butterflies, lawnmower, campground, sandbox, toothbrush, thumbtack, earthquake, scrapbook, courthouse, and whirlpool

Our final test will be Wednesday 11/20/13.
