Mrs. D's English stuff

Students began a Tall-tale/legend unit this week which will take us to the Christmas break. We have been introduced to different types of legends, tall tales, and cultures. The students will be reading a variety of stories and will eventually write a tall tale.

Upcoming events before the break:

Dec. 9th - Spelling quiz #6
Dec. 14-16 - Cultural presentations by the students. Each student will present to the class a story, tradition, or food that is part of his/her culture. Students will refer to their pedigree chart to find their heritage and talk to families about traditions that they celebrate.

Dec. 15 - A book mark or timeline will be turned in on a book that was read.

Dec. 16 - Spelling quiz #7

Dec. 18 - out for break until Jan. 4th

Contact me at the school if you have questions about what we are doing.
