Week 19: Learn to critique a narrative.

Good morning. Did everyone get enough sugar yesterday? Thank you for all of my treats. The dwindling chocolate supply in my pantry has been restored!

At home with EEL this week, you possess much freedom. The guide reviews verbs and introduces the verb anatomy chart for the verb "play." During class time, we finally worked our way through the progressive tense forms and spent the rest of our 45 minutes identifying sentences.

For IEW, we began a two-week writing assignment critiquing a short fictional account of the Lewis and Clark expedition. The lesson superbly lays out the process for you to follow, including a three-paragraph and a five-paragraph option. Only part of the rough draft paragraphs are due next week; the final paragraph rough draft will be written the following week before the paper is revised and polished.

We will continue listening to the students read their faith essays next Tuesday. What tender, thoughtful, compassionate hearts they have!
