Dear Parents,
Please be aware that the ELA quiz scheduled for last Friday will be given this Monday, May 4th and the Religion quiz on the rosary will be on Friday, May 8th. Below I have again listed the study guide for each grade. Please make sure all students review well since this is last quarter and final chance to do your best!
FOURTH GRADE
ELA - Review TT3 and TT4 on Greek and Latin roots on ixl. Study the figures of speech definitions and examples on http://mrswarnerarlington.weebly.com/figurative-language.html
STUDY the definitions in the notebook copied from the blog.
Review finding the rhyme scheme, different figures of speech, the central message or theme, and how the poem reveals feelings we all have in common in each of the poems below that we studied in class: "Dreams" by Langston Hughes, "Humanity" by Elma Stuckey "On the Way to School" by Charles Ghigna. Hopefully you were paying close attention in class all week! You will need to write about this!

On http://read.gov/aesop/ click on START. Then go through the list of all the Aesop's fable we studied in class and review the stories and especially the morals (Yes-as we did in class twice!).
**Study also the notes in your ELA nootebook on how to write a narrative about a fable. Review the model essay and apply it to the last fable we studied: "The Wind and the Sun."
Good luck to ALL GRADES!
