Pronouns

Today we learned about pronouns (words that take the place of a noun), as well as antecedents (the noun that is replaced).  We completed workbook page 49.

Tomorrow is a  spelling test.  Workbook page 57 was offered as a spelling extra credit assignment.

Book-it is due on January 6th.  January calendars for Book-it will be distributed AFTER the break. Any reading that is completed during the first month of January will be allowed to count toward BOTH calendars!  If a student lost their calendar, they can provide a note from home verifying if 4 hours of reading was completed for the month.  Students who lose their book review paper can create their own book review on a blank sheet of paper.  That should solve the problem of "the elves took my homework!"  :)

Today we read "The Garden of Abdul Gasazi," a fascinating Chris Van Allsburg story.  We also had library time.
