September 15-19

Good morning!

This week we are continuing to learn about the genres of fiction!  Students should re-watch the genres of fiction video as a refresher tonight.

This week we will be working more in depth with Character Traits and Character Changes.  We will also be comparing and contrasting the characters of traditional literature and their adventures.

We will also be working with multiple meaning words this week.  Students have homework tonight, the back side of their vocabulary page 15-16 which is not due until Wednesday.

Today we have compared and contrasted fairy tales, fables, myths, legends, and tall tales.

We will continue to work with these genres, study plot and theme, and analyze characters throughout the week.

I will be posting some more videos and hopefully some vocabulary tonight.  Until then please have students study their multiple meaning words and re-watch the videos already posted as review.

In social studies this week we will be learning about the 7 Regions of Texas.  We will have a study guide sent home tonight and a quiz labeling the regions and their borders on Friday.

Thanks for all you do! :)
