This morning we began by reviewing the adverb work Morgan had completed on Tuesday. She had made a few errors with the adverbs, but her biggest challenge was not identifying the helping verbs in the sentences. Next, Morgan took her practice spelling test. She scored 12/20 and will write each missed word three times for homework as well as work through her www.spellingtraining.com practice. Our next activity focused on figurative language. Morgan copied the Google Slides for concepts such as simile, onomatopoeia, personification, and metaphor. We discussed each of the 7 types described as she copied the notes. Finally, we read most of the lengthy chapter 12 in The Hiding Place. We analyzed the differences between perspectives of the main character Corie and her sister. Additionally, we examined our feelings on their work day and the foreman’s treatment of the detainees when the officers are not present.
