Hello, my Grade 4/5 Literary geniuses! I miss all of you!!   :)

Please use today to finish all of Rule 6 if you didn’t already on Monday.

Continue working on your paragraph (4 - 6 sentences) about at home learning. Please include the following in your sentences:     (hint 1 sentence may have several items below in it)

  1. Use a singular noun    (rule 6) green
  2. Use a plural noun        (rule 6) green
  3. Write a compound sentence using ‘and’, ‘or’, or ‘but’ (rule 4) yellow
  4. Use a proper noun       (rule 5) red
  5. Use a common noun   (rule 5) red
  6. Use a statement sentence        (rule 1) blue
  7. Use an exclamation sentence (rule 1) blue
  8. Write complete sentences with a subject and predicate         (rule 2) pink

****Please review the rule information pages before starting

Some questions to think about:

  • Do you like or not like home learning?
  • What do you miss about school?
  • What are you doing at home when you’re not working on schoolwork?

After your paragraph is written please go through the sentences you created and underline using different colours where you used each rule. The colours to use are highlighted by rule. (See above)

Example: Today I am going to have bacon and eggs for breakfast, or maybe I will have cereal instead. My favourite is Cheerios. They are the best! Later this afternoon, my son will walk the dog. I can’t wait until I can be teaching in my classroom again. (Please see the email for the colours of this sentence as it didn't show up in this format! )

***Please be super neat as you will hand this in when you return to school!!!!

Also, read over and study your spelling words.
