  1. Wasn't at school today, is there anything I can do? And was there any homework?

    1. We got new bookmarks today. Keep track of tonight's reading on a sheet of binder paper and you can add it to the new bookmark tomorrow. We also practiced writing three sentences with parentheticals. Finally, we watched the two previews listed in the agenda (click on Preview #1 and Preview #2 to watch them). We made a venn diagram comparing/contrasting the two videos and then wrote a paragraph predicting what the story "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" will be about.

      Hope you're feeling better tomorrow!
