Lesson Outline
We began our session with day 1 of the week 23 vocabulary packet. We discussed the words for this study, which are: heterogeneous, gamut, perspicuous, analogous, and maladjusted. Morgan read a passage that utilized all of these words. After reading, she shared what she felt was the main idea of the passage. She then matched the definitions and words as well as completed fill-in-the-blank sentences examining the words in context. We worked to “check” her work by inserting the definition into the sentence to help deepen understanding and confirm the correct word was chosen. We also discussed the idiom of “cut the mustard”. Next, we finished the slideshow on the poet, Maya Angelou and we also read an additional project on William Shakespeare. Morgan took relevant notes on each. Finally, we spent a great deal of our time on an adjective review. We read the text on limiting adjectives, limiting adjective vs. pronoun, descriptive adjectives, predicate adjectives, degrees of adjectives, and finally proper adjectives. After reading about each topic, Morgan worked through practice examples of each. We reviewed her responses and made any relevant corrections. The most challenging exercise was labeling multiple adjectives in the same sentence.
