Spelling Routine:

Monday: 

___Write each spelling word you missed five times correctly.

___Look up 2 words FROM YOUR INDEPENDENT BOOK in the dictionary and record the definitions – include part of speech.

___Look up 1 work FROM YOUR IDENPENDENT BOOK in the Thesaurus and record the synonyms and antonyms if there are any. 

Tuesday:

___Write 8 sentences using at least 10 spelling words – including the ones you missed in the pre-test.

Wednesday:

___ “The Third Week of September” rewrite. Please rewrite this piece from last week. Along with making my corrections, try to make your sentences more varied (some short and simple, some longer by combining two or three sentences). Also try to expand your ideas even further and make your writing that much more beautiful, detailed, and heartfelt. – If you haven’t already made it more of a PROLOGUE with an introduction of characters and some foreshadowing, please do so in your rewrite. 

Thursday:

___Study for test on Friday morning. Good Luck!
