Last Day of Spring Semester!


This is the last day of the spring semester! I have enjoyed working with each student, and am extremely grateful for all of the time spent, lessons learned, and opportunities to grow with the students. We still have a summer Reading and Writing class going on during the months of June and July, so be sure your students are signed up before fall semester begins in August!

Vocabulary
  1. mundane
  2. unidentifiable
  3. riveted
  4. corroberate
  5. mantra
  6. illuminated
  7. syntax
  8. ossify
  9. astonishment

Worksheet
"My Spring Semester in Reading and Writing Class"
Students wrote a short story using our daily vocabulary words to describe the highlights and low points of the class this semester, as well as what they are looking forward to for the summer! 

Reading

Continued reading, "Spy School", by Stuart Gibbs - chapter 2. 

Writing

Five Minute Creative Writing Challenge: "Last Day of Class Writing"

Students took 5 minutes in class to creatively write. Spelling, punctuation, and capitalization skills are not the focus of this challenge! Students have five minutes to dig deep into their creative minds and write about what they see! 

Activities

Book squares and Book marks!
