Today's Agenda:
1. Warm-up and correct the warm-up 2. Tell students to take out Vocabulary List #8 and read each word to them while they listen and repeat each word. Tell students to turn their papers over and number their papers 7-10. Read numbers 7-10 and students will practice writing these words. Remember to correct the spelling of ALL the vocabulary words (#1-10) with students, so they are able to practice the test taking routine. Tell students "tomorrow is your vocabulary test, so remember to do your homework and STUDY!" 3. Write a list of adjectives from page 74 and 75 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.

Tell students to do this page and then correct it with them when they have finished. 4. Formative Assessment Instruction/Practice: Write the prompt for Week #3 on the board and read/translate to students as necessary.
