Began class with five riddles I had the students read and solve. Then we started chapter 8 pg. 286 in the text. I introduced the vocabulary on shopping and trying clothes on. We compared and contrasted a bill when you go out to eat from last chapter to a receipt when you go shopping and how the vocabulary is different.

Students really enjoy reading riddles and have fun trying to figure out what is being described. They are very good at breaking down the words they know and work hard to figure out the words they do not in order to get the right answer.

Great lesson. Ashley and Sadie were present. Sadie successfully completed her exam(100). Ashley submitted her completed paper! Because it is early, she receives exemption from next exam. Sadie and Devin will submit their papers next week.
Sheilagh left some work for them to do. They have been reading a book, and she wanted them to look up some vocab words in the book and determine how the author used them in a sentence, and then create their own sentence.
