Learning Objectives:
Students will be able to use adjectives in their writing.

Homework For Today:
Complete part B(#5-8) page 69

Today's Agenda:
1. Warm-up and correct the warm-up 2. Tell students to take out Vocabulary List #8 and read/spell each word to them while they listen and repeat each word. Tell students to turn their papers over and number their papers 1-6. Read numbers 1-6 and students will practice writing these words only for today. Tell students "we will practice numbers 7-10 tomorrow so tonight study numbers 7-10 from the Vocabulary List." 3. Write a list of adjectives from page 69 on the board for students to copy in their notebooks. Then, have an aide write the translation of the words in both Spanish and Arabic for students to copy in their notebooks. Students will be able to use and study this page for the practice formative assessments each week. Pass out copies of page 69 of GWPB and teach them the concept. Tell students to ONLY do part A and correct this when the have finished. Assign part B for homework. 4. Formative Assessment Instruction/Practice: refer to www.highbeginningeld.wikispaces.com for this lesson 5. Continue working on the review pages in the textbook. Pages 46-47 also have a chance to review, so students should write the answers to the questions in their notebooks. SKIP: ASK AND ANSWER QUESTIONS (PG 46) AND CONCEPT CLUSTERS (PG 47). Focus on Identify Sequence (pg 47) because students will be graded on this on their formative assessments. You may need to modify this in some way.
