Katya took a pretest on vocabulary and literary terms. The graded test will be on Tuesday. We worked on the online computer portion of the Patterns textbook for sentence structure as a base for further teaching and explanation. We will continue this on Tuesday. Katya took notes as I taught her by writing questions from informational text in the Patterns textbook, and writing the answers under the questions. This is a good test prep strategy, and helps understand and memorize important materials. We added the portion on body paragraphs to the earlier work on introductory paragraphs.HOMEWORK: Katya is working on an essay on Puppy Mills. The introductory paragraph and a few body paragraphs should be completed by Tuesday. She also needs to study vocabulary and literary terms for Tuesday's test.
