Happy Monday Morning! 🌻

 

 

Good Morning Students of 289!!!

Another new week at home with our virtual learning! I’m so proud of how our class has been working so hard under these conditions! I hope everyone  is healthy!

Today, we are going to read a new story in your Journey’s big book called Sarah, Plain and Tall. Watch the following to learn a bit about pioneer life:

and this one about covered wagons. These covered wagons were how the pioneers moved across the country to find their new homes.

Now, go ahead and read the story in your book. If you want to read it on your iPad, here is the link:

Journeys Volume 2

To practice your skills, please go to Schoology and complete the HOTS question posted in the reading folder, in the Monday folder, in the week of April 27-May 1 folder. You logon to Schoology through the Clever App. The first time you go there, you may have to put in your 902# and password.


Next is your phonics work. Today you will be watching some videos. The first one is about when you should double the final consonant when you add  -ed and -ing endings.

The next one is a song about instances where you are adding -ing and you have to drop the final “e”.

and the last one is a spelling rules rap about -ed and -ing.


Moving on to vocabulary for Sarah, Plain and Tall. Today you are learning the new vocabulary words. You will open a study stack of them. Please take your time to learn these new words. After spending at least 10 minutes practicing them, play the MATCHING GAME.
