Homework – Complete the “Context Clue – Day 4 (1-20)” before Monday.

Today – Each student will participate in today’s activity if he or she has completed the two paragraphs using the fourteen commonly confused words in each.

Students will randomly receive two other peer’s paragraphs and identify the correct use of the choices for each of the fourteen included on each paragraph.  It will be returned to the owner to check and then share the results with the person who took it.  If you were absent today and were not able to complete a peer’s, be sure to still submit the ones created.

Students will also complete a review quiz for simile, metaphor, and personification in order to ascertain the level of work still to do before next Tuesday’s CRT. Plan to make up at 8:00 next week, during lunch, or by making other plans with Mr. Thompson.
