G1/G2 - After passing back some graded work, we quickly reviewed what we read in class last time. Next, we finished reading The Odyssey today! :) We read "Death in the Great Hall" (p. 1156-1161) and "The Trunk of the Olive Tree" (p. 1162-1165). Students completed the last comprehension worksheet today as we went through these readings. This worksheet was collected when we were finished reading. The rest of the block was spent reviewing Vocab. List #2 via Vocabulary Bingo and, in G2, we also held a Spelling Bee. Assignment: Study Vocab. List #2 for the Vocab. Test on Friday.
G3 - After passing back some graded work, I gave students a Journal Prompt: Write about the proudest moment you have ever had. Discussion. Next, we finished reading The Odyssey today! :) We needed to catch up a little bit in this class, so we finished reading "The Test of the Bow" first. I collected the worksheets over "The Beggar...," "The Suitors, and "The Test of the Bow." Next, we read "Death in the Great Hall" (p. 1156-1161) and "The Trunk of the Olive Tree" (p. 1162-1165). Students completed the last comprehension worksheet today as we went through these readings. The rest of the block was spent reviewing Vocab. List #2 via Vocabulary Bingo. Assignment: Study Vocab.
