Flat Mrs. Laudeman Project:

Hello boys and girls! By now you should have received a little something from me in the mail. Since we can not physically be together, I shared a smaller, flatter version of my self with each of you. I miss you so much and I miss all the fun we used to have together at school! Even though we are apart, we can still learn and explore together. Take me with you on your adventures and be sure to document our time together!
I’ve made a special Flipgrid so that you can post all of your pictures of us exploring together! If you can not access the flipgrid, just email your pictures to me at klaudeman@northschuylkill.net.

sister for that matter! Please keep me in a safe spot when I need to rest!

Week 6: Lesson and Assignments 

Adjectives

During our week 6 lesson, we will become familiar with Adjectives.  An adjective is a word that describes an animal, person, thing, or thought.  Adjectives include words that describe what something looks like and feels like to touch, smell, or taste. Adjectives can be colors or words that describe temperatures and sizes. Try describing yourself. Are you tall, short, fast, smart, bored, or tired? These are all adjectives, because they describe a person – you!

Examples:

The beautiful butterfly flew away.

The warrior was fierce.

Directions for assignment:

Week 5: Lesson and Assignments 

Compare and Contrast in Literature

During our week 5 lesson, we will become familiar with Comparing and Contrasting different passages and literature. Readers compare and contrast the information found in different stories. This helps readers understand what they are reading. This also helps them remember important points. Readers can compare and contrast the plots, settings, and characters of different stories. This allows readers to see what is the same and what is different about the stories. When you compare, you tell how things are the same.  When you contrast, you tell how things are different.

1. Watch the "Compare and Contrast" Lesson Video prepared by your teachers (this is in the Week 5 study guide and Lesson video section)
