What a great word! This week students wrote poems with onomatopoeias (sound effects) and alliteration. This coming up week we will be writing an anthology of poems to finish up our poetry unit.
In Language Arts we have finished Unit 5 on Mechanics, and we will have the Unit 5 test on Thursday.
Important Dates:
Monday- No School! Martin Luther King Day!
Tuesday- Progress Reports
Wednesday- AR Printouts Due
Thursday- LA Unit 5 Test
Friday- Wordskills Unit 13 Test
Tongue Twister- Alliteration:
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?
See if you can pick out the onomatopoeias.
"Water Slide"
Woosh! The sound of water,
Wee! You slide down,
Splash! You hit the pool.
