A Short Week

Dear Friends,

We packed a lot of learning into 4 days!  Hopefully the home letters will get finished before parents read them. Next Friday, we'll get started on our writing a bit earlier and spend less time brainstorming ideas.  Enjoy this long weekend.

Sincerely,
Ms. Perlmutter

P.S. Homework:
Put your grammar knowledge of nouns, adjectives and verbs to good use! Pick a real-life noun (person, place or thing).  Get a piece of paper and pencil.  Make a t-chart with 2 columns like the image below.  Write the column headings: Adjectives and Verbs.  List as many adjectives and verbs to describe your chosen noun as possible. 

For example, I will choose my noun to be "Principal"

Under Adjectives, I will use: smart, leader, organized, generous, friendly, kind,  important

Under Verbs, I will use: talk, write, arrange, speak, teach, announce, call
