Homework 9/10/07

Reading: Fiction terms quiz on Wed. This quiz is worth 100 points, so it is very important that you study for it. The fiction terms have been handed out in the form of a reference sheet.
Reading Log-This assignment will be every week. This is the first log we will have this year. It is worth 25 points. The students have a sheet to fill out and have their parents sign to show that they have read 75 pages of their reading workshop (library) book on their own. It is very important that the students be reading on their own at home.

English: There is an important parts of speech quiz tomorrow (75 points). The students will have to be able to define each of the parts of speech (noun, verb, etc) and give a sentence with some examples for each. We have been working on parts of speech for the last two weeks in class, so they have a reference sheet and all of the information is in their language network book. They also have a language toolbox that they can be using to study.
Spelling-The students received their spelling list and two worksheets to be turned in on Friday. They are page 13 and 14. They are each worth 20 points.
