Spelling words and homework for WEDNESDAY January 20.

Due to the P.A. day and our trip to Forest Valley next Thursday, homework will be due next Wednesday and the spelling test will also be on Wednesday. As the week is very short, I will not have the opportunity to read book bags with the children. I will let them keep their book until the following week, after which I will give the students a new book.

Spelling words:

1. le zèbre
2. le désert
3. une chose
4. une chaise
5. une rose
6. zéro
7. un magasin
8. le poison
9. une cerise
10. s'amuser

Homework:

Make a list of rhyming words. Place them at the end of silly sentences to make a poem. Please take note that the spelling words mostly DON'T rhyme!

Here's an example:
List of rhyming words: Pleure, coeur, fleur, peur

J'ai vu une fille qui pleure

Je l'ai donné une fleur

Elle m'a donné son coeur

Je n'avais pas peur

It can be as many or as few lines as the children choose - I'm just looking to have them think about rhyming words and how they fit into the construct of poetry.

Bonne chance!
