Dear Parents,
Please have your students bring in at least FOUR sheets of light spring colored sheets of construction paper this Monday or Tuesday - pink, yellow, or light blue, green, or purple. Students also need a set of colored pencils. This week all students should print out the Unit 4 flip card Religion words and definitions from www.sadlierreligion.com. These should be cut out and placed in a small plastic bag for review. All students should also still have their cards from Units 1, 2, and 3 each in a separate bag since this will make it easier to review before final exams.
The vocabulary definitions for this week are in Language Arts:
*hyphen - a mark (-) used between syllables of a divided word as at the end of a line or between parts of some compound words
*interjection - a word or cry expressing sudden or strong feeling (eg. Ouch! Alas!)
*similie - a phrase using like or as to compare two different things (eg. Ramona is as fast as lightning.)
*metaphor - a phrase comparing two different things that does NOT use like or as (eg. Ed's car is a pile of junk.)
*fable - a story that teaches a lesson in which the main character faces a problem
