Livingston Christian Schools 5th Grade: October 12-16
Bible: The principle for this week is that whatever a person does, whether it be good or bad, it will be returned to him. The Bible says, "Whatever a man sows, he will reap. We will wrap-up our study of Jacob's life and see how God taught him to overcome deception and make amends with his brother. Bible quiz 4 is scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 15, and Bible memory is Psalm 19:1-10 on Friday, Oct. 16.
Spelling: List 5 words are more plural terms. The pre-test and final test are set for Wednesday and Friday, respectively. Spelling sentences are due Thursday, Oct. 15.
Language Arts: The reading selection this week is entitled Galileo, pgs. 166-175. Dicussion will center on how the author used elaboration through providing concept information. The comprehension quiz will be scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 14.
Grammar lessons will highlight prepositions and prepositional phrases. Students will be memorizing a list of common prepositions. They will be quizzed over the first ten words on Tuesday, Oct. 20. After understanding the common preposition, students will be better equipped to distinguish verbs from prepositions.
Writing Workshop time will continue to provide instruction on writing historical fiction in the form of the Explorer's Journal. Students have begun the rough draft which should be completed by Friday, Oct. 16. After one-on-one editing with students, a typed rough draft will be turned in by Tuesday, Oct. 20.
