L.A. Grade 8

Week of November 24

Our standard this week is creating and using varied sentence types ( simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex).  We will also continue our work on the adjective, adverb, and noun subordinate clauses.   We will be doing most of our work in class.  Some practice writing may need to be done for homework.  Vocabulary words for this week have the "ject" (throw) root, and the "sect" (cut;separate) root.  Students need to be checking out Willesden Lane books to complete reading assignments and corresponding questions.
