Next week we will continue with some vocabulary, praticing the grammar rules (parts of speech and commas), and start verb tenses.
The quiz will be on Sunday the 18th, and will take 2 periods. Most of what we have been doing is revision from 4th grade and these grammar rules are important for us to continue with writing.
Please find the vocabulary below with the definitions that should be put into the copy book.
This weeks outstading winner of Grade 5's copy book is Azel!
Please continue to encourage the students to have a well kept copybook or folder!
I will be posting pictures of the best ones on the blog!
