Grandfather's Journey: Read the passage for one minute. Record the number of words you were able to read. (Try your best to read accurately also.) Do this three times.
Reading Log: This week, all of the reading logs need to be a summary and/or your thoughts on what you read that day. Try to read for 20 minutes or more EVERY DAY! Those who read are those who succeed!
Verbs: Fill in each sentence with one of the word choices. Remember, you, I, or we do NOT need to have an "s" on their verbs.
Analogies: In analogies, we look at the relationships between words. Each analogy will tell you two words. These words will have some kind of relationship--they could be opposites, synonyms (the same), or parts that belong together, etc. Your job is to 1) find out the relationship between those two words and then 2) to look at the other word that is given and figure out which word goes with it. Both sets of words will follow the same rule.
For example: Eye is to look as ear is to _____________.
1) I know that the relationship between "eye" and "look" is that the eye helps me look.
2) The other word that is given is "ear." I know that "ear" must have the same relationship with its word as "eye" has with "look." SO, I know that the answer to the analogy is "listen," because the ear helps me listen.
Use the words in the box to complete the analogies.
There are three pages of analogies. You only have to do two of those pages. You can do the third one, if you'd like. However, it is not necessary.
Multiplication Grid: We've done his one before! Keep on practicing those multiplication facts! Students should be able to complete this page in 5 minutes or less. If it is taking them longer than that, this is a good sign that they need to work more on memorizing their multiplication facts.
Place Value: We have been working on place value a lot in class. Students should know how to do this page.
As always, homework should only take about 40 minutes a night to do. If students are spending more than 40 minutes a night to get their work done, this is a sign that the homework is too hard. Please, let me know if this is the case.
Keep on keeping on! First quarter is almost done!
