HW from Tuesday, 9/18/18

Due on Thursday, 9/20/28

1) Be sure you have memorized this list of your five senses:
LOOK
SMELL
TASTE
SOUND
FEEL

Practice reciting them perfectly—in this exact order, using these exact words.

2) Prepare your CW binder. Fix the five tabs in your binder (sorry about that!) in the following (corrected) order, with the correct pages filed into each section:

1 – Notes (Writing & Grammar Lessons) – put loose-leaf paper in this section

2 – Handouts – put the administrative class information pages here
3 – Copywork / Reading Logs – your printed handout for CW #1 should be here
4 – Quizzes / Tests
5 – Memory Work / Poetry

3) Visit the following web links to listen to the School House Rock songs for nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs. Using a separate sheet of paper for each part of speech, as you listen to each song write down the definition of each part of speech (according to the song) and give as many examples of that part of speech as you can from the song itself. (Often, there are 20-30 or more specific examples of each part of speech listed out in the songs! Write down as many as you can hear and understand.)These are due Thursday.

Remember: use a new sheet of paper for each part of speech/song!

* NOUN A Noun Is a Person, Place, or Thing
* ADJECTIVE Unpack Your Adjectives
* VERB Verb: That's What's Happening
* ADVERB Lolly Lolly Lolly, Get Your Adverbs Here

4) Let me know if you or your parent did not receive both the email and the text that I sent. The groups are made and I am assuming everyone is receiving both. Please let me know if you didn't get them.

5) Be sure you have completed all previous assignments. (Check the previous homework blog entries.) The paragraph response to Admiral McCraven’s video is due Thursday.

Also, daily:
+ Read your (approved) book for pleasure, aiming for 30 minutes daily. Mark the number of minutes on your Reading Log as you go along—in multiples of five, rounded down—and have a parent initial it in the box each day. The September Reading log is due on Tuesday, October 2.

+ Make your bed! J

As always, please call, text, or email me if you have any questions or concerns about how to do anything assigned on this blog! My suggestion is always that you print it out so you can check off each item as you complete it.
