Vocabulary

Continue working on your vocabulary log. Remember to choose one of the following choices. 

1. You can make your own vocabulary log with paper. Be sure to include the word, definition, a sentences using your word, and a picture of your word.

2. You can create a document that includes all 10 words to share with me. You can type your word, the definition, a sentence using your word, and you can use clipart for the picture of your word. 

Have fun learning the next set of words. We will have a quiz on them in a few weeks. 

Today's Word: 

venture- a risky or daring undertaking

 

Grammar/Writing

Lets continue with subjects and predicates! This is important to understand especially if you are someone who tends to accidentally include fragments or run-ons in your writing.

If you did not watch the Brain Pop video that was posted yesterday, I would suggest doing that! Even if you did, it might be a good idea to re-watch it. Copy and paste the sentences below onto your grammar/writing Google doc. Highlight each SIMPLE SUBJECT in red and each SIMPLE PREDICATE in blue. :) I have included an example below. Then, create 5 more sentences of your own and do the same thing with those sentences! 

*Remember, simple subjects are nouns and simple predicates are verbs. Ignore any adjectives, articles, adverbs...etc. 

 

Example: The firemen extinguished the fire.

 

1. We went to lunch with Amar and his friend today.

2. Juan and Julian worked so hard on their project.

3. A large number of swimmers competed in the race this year.

4. The tired old man came in from the rain.

5. My younger sister made a smoothie. 

 

 

Spelling

Think and Sort Activity: Look at your list of spelling words and sort them according to their suffixes. You should have one section of words with the -ful suffix and one section of words with the -less suffix. Type these lists on your grammar/writing Google doc. :) 

*Remember, your last spelling test is on Thursday!
