English: – Identify prepositions and prepositional phrases.
– Unit 7 Check-Up and Cumulative Review (Wednesday and Friday)
The One and Only Ivan: We are thoroughly enjoying The One and Only Ivan. Be sure to ask you child what chapters we’ve covered and discussed each week.
Some of the learning objectives (or WALT as we refer to them in Grade 4; We Are Learning To) and questions that we will cover while reading are:
- Describe in depth a character, setting, or event in a story or drama, drawing on specific details in the text (e.g., a character’s thoughts, words, or actions). Compare and contrast the points of view from which different stories are narrated, including the difference between first- and third-person narrations.
- How does point of view contribute to the authenticity of a story? Write an explanatory text telling how the author uses point of view in the book and how you as the reader were impacted.
- How do authors develop characterization, and how does characterization enhance the reader’s understanding of the character’s personality?
- How does the author use figurative language through the character’s eon?

But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,  that you may be children of your Father in heaven.
