WELCOME!

Hello my wonderful students! This blog is for you and for your parents. On this blog you will find the weekly homework posted each Saturday. Each day I will post what we did in class and I will also post what I want you to study at home.

I know English is a hard language! But I also know that you can be a successful student if you keep on working hard in class and at home! I am here to help you, and I want to help you in any way I can. If you do a good job as a student, I am sure that you will have a wonderful time learning this language!

This blog is also for parents! I am starting this blog so that what we cover in class is much clearer and if you have any questions at all you can contact me directly. With your love and encouragement, students will be successful learners :)
Thank you so much for your support!

TODAY IN CLASS : FEBRUARY 8, 2010

3A : 4TH period  - They took their quiz.  They had to write 5 words with the letter "P" and 5 words with the letter "B".
The reason for the quiz is because many students do not understand the difference in sound of these two letters.
We practiced many times with words with these two letters last week.
Students MUST STUDY FOR THEIR QUIZ.  I will return the quizzes tomorrow, and I would like for the parents to sign their quiz.

6TH period : We reviewed the homework and identified the body parts of a bird.  We talked about which body parts are the same for birds and people and which are not.

I gave them a short worksheet on words with a  "LONG A" sound.
***PARENTS : I WOULD  LIKE FOR YOU TO PRACTICE WITH YOUR KIDS!!!
words like these : paint, day, say, crayon, hay, rain  ALL have a LONG A sound

words like these : bag, cat, cap, nap  have a SHORT A sound.

Students should know the different "A" sound.  This will help them in spelling and reading words.

HOMEWORK : FINISH THE WORKSHEET! practice words with "long A" sound!

3B : 
4th Period : Students took their quiz on writing 5 words with "P" and 5 words with "B"
We reviewed their homework and discussed the body parts of a bird.
They got their worksheets on "LONG A" sound words.
Please practice with words with LONG A sound :
example : PAINT, RAIN, DAY, SAY, MAY

short A words : cap, bag, cat, nap, lap
