8-11 Homework

Hello,

Just a reminder, the homework tonight is:
Grammar unit 6-3 "Superlative adjectives" Do exercises 1-2

Go to freerice.com and study vocabulary for 10 minutes= write down all new vocabulary words for you.

Go to Unit 6 Vocabulary: Continue to work on your spelling of this week's vocabulary words!

Vocabulary Practice

I found a very cool website that will help you learn vocabulary as well as help feed poor people in Africa. The website is http://www.freerice.com/







Go to the website and start answering vocabulary question. Every question you get right you give 10 pieces of rice to people who need the food.











If you get a lot of correct answers, do what I did. Take a screen shot

To take a screen shot: press the ctrl and the print screen buttons.

Try to beat my score and feed people in need :)

SMRT Grammar Help

I have just emailed everyone the document for grammar unit 6. Go though the document and bring it on your computers to class tomorrow. We will learn and practice with the document.

Have a great afternoon. Remember the vocabulary homework tomorrow.

P.s.
I found a great vocabulary site that I will show you tomorrow :)
