Mangrove Wilderness and Spelling Unit 25
On Monday we practiced taking the PARCC test on computer. You can find a link to the site here:
The main purpose of this practice was learning how to navigate the test site, how to drag and drop, play a video clip, and hi light answers. We also practiced typing our extended response answers. You can use this site at home to see the sample of the test material.
We will have a Spelling Unit 25 Review test FRIDAY. Students can make extra credit word searches for their classmates. The word searches would need to be handed in to me by Wednesday afternoon so that I can get them copied for the class. All words must be spelled correctly in order to be copied for the class.
Here's a link to the word list and games:
We started to read Mangrove Wilderness on pages 629-645 in our Storytown book. The mangrove is a very special tree that grows in salt water. We also completed a vocabulary workbook page.
