7th Grade Language Arts, Literature, Latin Nov. 10-14
Week 5 of 2nd term
We are still working on past tenses in Latin. There will be a new vocabulary test on Friday. We will be working on best words for blanks in Vocabulary. We will read an exerp from Amy Tan’s The Joy Luck Club. We are studying the skills of prediction and characterization. The essay of the week is on being thankful during this season. I’d like the children to reflect on the real meaning of Thanksgiving and who or what they should be thankful for. We’ll throw in some Shurley grammar also.
