Language Arts 2-10-14

Language Arts:
  Today we completed a "Listening" activity by watching the Brainpop video on Mark Twain and completing a 10 question quiz.
  We created flash cards on a variety of genres:  tall tales, folk tales, fantasy, fairy tales, myths, legends
and literary techniques -- personification and satire.
   We corrected Simple Solutions Lesson 50. Test corrections were handed in.
    We read about Storytelling together (p. 902)  and listened to our story "Racing the Great Bear."

Harvard: handed in book reports and reports on Aesop.
