Today we read a story called "Tukama and the Duppy" and another story called "The Race at Moonbeam Lake." We were able to compare and contrast these two tales. One was an American Indian Tale, and the other was a Caribbean tale. We used the stories to work on an extended response answer in preparation for next week's ISAT tests. Students will bring their whole ISAT practice folder home tomorrow to show you. Please take a moment to look through it to see how hard they have been working.
Book-it calendars are due tomorrow. If lost, students can turn in a note from home verifying three hours of reading for the month. If the book review page is lost, students can simply write a book review on a blank sheet of notebook paper. Reading for Book-it is a required monthly homework assignment, and one of the few homework assignments that I give in language arts.
There is a review spelling test tomorrow.
