Grammar:
We are learning subject verb agreement the next two weeks. Students are often confused that a plural verb doesn't end in an s. Plenty of practice will help with this. 

Composition:
We are reviewing the parts of a story for the next two weeks. We will go through the process little faster this time.We will be writing all three parts during the next two weeks. Please help your child keep track of which paper they need to bring to school for IEW that day. Over the last four weeks many students wrote several extra pages because they did not have the one they needed at school. I'll do my best to help send reminders as well.

We will begin reading "The Cabin Faced West" this week.  The project for this book is a book report posters. Have your child first sketch their posters on a sheet of notebook paper.  Then, provide them with a large piece of poster paper or chart paper.  Posters must identify main characters, setting, title, problem, and solution along with a drawing of a part of the story.
