Spelling: None today due to the half day schedule.
Cursive: Ten cursive sentences of seven or more words each are due on Fridays.
Reading: Several students read their monologue to the class, focusing on speed, tone, volume, and accuracy when they were reading aloud.
Writing: We talked about different types of leads that a writer could use to begin a story:
- A talking lead would begin with dialogue.
- A visual lead would begin with describing what a character, place or object looked like.
- An action lead would start with the character doing something.
