Week #4, Day #4 Warm-up Sentences: 1. my favorite restaurant is burger king 2. please tell me your phone number i will call you tonight

Today's Agenda: 1. 2 Sentence Warm-up. (Write 2 sentences on the board and teach students that each day they will come in and copy the sentences, then correct any mistakes. Today, have students underline nouns, circle verbs and put a box around any adjectives. 2. Students should take out a piece of paper and number it 1-8. Students must spell each word correctly and write a short definition for each word. You can give them a point for each...however you want to do it is fine, but make sure to say each word slowly and clearly so students have enough time to write the word and the spelling. 3. Go to the computer lab with students and have them type their business letters. If there is not time for this and you have to go on Monday or something, make srue that you have finished all the stories from this past week. If so, students can work on pg. 433-434 either in groups or individually. Most of the time, they just work on Review Key Vocabulary, but if you need to fill more time, there is no reason why they cannot also work on Talk About Literature and even Write About Literature. Since I am not sure if you will be in the computer lab that day or not, I want to make sure you have enough to do otherwise.
