Week 16

WEEK 16

Words of Encouragement

“God called the light ‘day’ and the darkness he called ‘night’.” Genesis 1:5

Can you see how the Word  uses the new sentence patterns? Doesn't that just blow your mind?

Latin Phrase of the Day- 

Latin phrase of the Day- Deus amor est

Because Valentines Day is on Wednesday, I decided

to go with a Valentines theme. 💙💚💛💜

EEL

REVIEW: 

P.O.S.

The kids came in and wrote out the NOUN chart. We talked a bit about noun usages and pronouns. 

THEN we spent the rest of the EEL time plugging in some nouns into our Valentine sentences. I hope seeing all the different combos up on the board offered these girls a bigger picture. 

SENTENCE STRUCTURE

Cx: has an independent clause and a subordinate clause. 

We reviewed this chart again to get in our minds what is what. 

PURPOSE: 

Declarative: What do we know about the Declarative purpose?

1. Declarative = makes a statement or declares something

3. Period at the end of the sentence.

NEW GRAMMAR: 

  PATTERN: S-Vt-DO-OCN and S-Vt-DO-OCA

 The last two sentence patterns were introduced today. In order to understand these patterns, we had to look back at two parts of speech. 

MATH

We enjoyed ourselves with the I <3 Candy game. The kiddos did great with the sweet challenge. We ended with GRAPHING our sweet results.

IEW

REVIEW: We took time to listen to each other’s paper.

NEW GRAMMAR: It was time to talk through UNIT 7
