Poetry
We are taking a break from Poetry. We will let you know when the next poem is coming.
Handwriting
We will assign a weekly handwriting assignment on Monday, and it will (usually) be due on Thursday.
During the first semester, we learn to correctly form our cursive letters (lowercase and capital). In the second semester (starting in January), students are expected to write in cursive in all core classes.
Idioms and Proverbs
Set 3 Quiz will be on March 7, 2022. Students will be expected to match proverbs/adages to their definitions (memorization) and write out scenarios in which our proverbs/adages could be used (application).
Set 3 Proverbs/Adages (Third 9 Weeks) Beauty is only skin deep The bigger they are, the harder they fall Birds of a feather flock together Don't count your chickens before they hatch Don't put all your eggs in one basket Make hay while the sun shines Half a loaf is better than none Haste makes waste
