A Cat Prepares - Bunnicula Chapter 4

Some Unusual Goings - On 

In class this week and next we are reading the story of Bunnicula  written by Deborah Howe and James Howe. Today we read together chapter 4, "A Cat Prepares."  Is Bunnicula a vampire or a bunny?  

Here's a short video trailer of the story:

For our classroom read-aloud, Block 1 is reading Sideways Stories from Wayside School and Block 2 is reading Athlete vs. Mathlete by W.C. Mack.  

Just a reminder that this week's spelling words are very difficult.  We spent some time practicing in the computer lab using the Spelling City site.  They all have Vowel-Consonant-Consonant-Consonant-Vowel patterns.  We will continue to practice during the week.  I would encourage every student to use the Spelling City link to Unit 9 words below to practice at home.
