Lesson Instructions

You will go through two lessons (one in grammar and one in reading). 

Pencil GRAMMAR

Verbs

Introduction

Hello grammarians! This week, we have been reviewing verbs that we have learned from previous grades. Today, we will be reviewing the rules of changing the ending of verbs. Sometimes, when we change the ending of verbs, we have to double the consonant. For example, the verb "stop" becomes "stopping." Look at the visual below on when we should double our consonants in verbs.

Verbs often have tricky spellings, especially if we are changing the endings from present to past tense.

Domain-Specific Vocabulary Words

Introduction

Readers, this week we have been discussing domain-specific vocabulary. We used levels to help us understand how we will need to "level up" our vocabulary in order to sound like the experts that we can be in reading, writing, and speaking. Today, we are going to learn a strategy that we can use when we find a new domain-specific vocabulary word that is unfamiliar.
