Over the past few day, students continued with silent reading and completed two worksheets for identifying Parts of Speech.
During Tuesday's class, we finished our notes on elements of short stories. We also read the story "The Street That Got Mislaid".
Today, we completed questions and a character sketch for "The Street That Got Mislaid". We also went over different types of point of view by looking at various excerpts from stories and novels. Additionally, we read the story "The Hockey Sweater", completed corresponding questions, and watched the N.F.B. video version of the story.
We finished off the day reading "The Monkey's Paw" and watched a video version of the story. Thank you to the students who read aloud!
