Week 19: 'Twas the Week Before Christmas...

Another great week as we are very close to wrapping up "A Christmas Carol". It's been so fun to read by candlelight, explore vocab strategies and talk about symbolism in the context of a wonderful story about change.

This will count as a book read for students. However, if they've missed more than a day of reading and did not make it up, I cannot let them count it. Please (begging here) do your missing work!

First of all, if you were absent Friday, here is what you need to do:

1- Go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXce_-7g2cQ to LISTEN to "A Christmas Carol" and listen to Stave 4 beginning on 2:14:20.
OR
Go to https://www.pagebypagebooks.com/Charles_Dickens/A_Christmas_Carol/Stave_4_The_Last_of_the_Spirits_p1.html and read Stave 4

2-EMAIL me a summary of what you read. What are the main things that happened.

3-Now, copy down STAVE 4 Vocabulary--click to get a larger view:). You need to do the email, then show me the completed vocab. for points for Friday.


Nope, there are NO Reading Logs due during Christmas vacation. However, I am sending home an OPTIONAL Christmas Break Reading Challenge if your child would like to participate. I don't have it available online yet.
