Writing+and+Spelling

=WRITING = This marking period will be spent on narrative writing. We will start by creating a list of ideas using different types of organizers. Next, we will write a story that has a clear main idea and support that main idea with the most important details. We will work to improve our conventions, such as spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. One of the best ways to foster good narrative writing is by keeping a personal journal. I've encouraged the kids to start one at home. All you need is an old notebook and a pencil! The rest comes from your own personal experiences!

=SPELLING = =Visit Spelling City to test yourself on this week's spelling words. You can take a test or play some word games! This will be assigned as homework from time to time in place of the workbook pages. =
