This week in morphology, we are learning the vocabulary with our bases <cede, cess, ceed> (to go, yield), <grade, gress, gree> (step), and <gest> (bear, carry, yield). Please encourage your child to read for 30 minutes per night and review their morphology cards. Have a wonderful and restful Thanksgiving break!

This week in morphology, we are finishing up our last unit and moving to new units. The students should be reading 30 minutes each night, read one Freckle article for the week and study the morphology cards.

 

Have a super week!

This week in morphology, we are continuing with our bases <host>, <hosp>, and <nym, nom> by completing tasks to explore the vocabulary, parts of speech and usage in sentences. The students should be reviewing the vocabulary with this unit as well as reading 30 minutes per night, and reading 1 Freckle article by Friday of this week. Over the break, the students should be reading regularly. Have a great break and we'll see you in October!

This week in morphology, we are continuing with our studies of <nym, nom> (name), <host> (enemy, stranger), <hosp> (guest, host). We are working on learning the different vocabulary associated with these bases. Later this week, the students will be given the vocabulary cards and the Vocabulary.com assignment (due next week). We will also be playing different games and incorporating the new vocabulary into different activities. Please have your child read 30 minutes per night and review the morphology cards. You can quiz them on words using those bases. The students will also need to read at least 1 Freckle article of their choice by Friday. Have a fantastic week!

I hope everyone enjoyed the Labor Day Holiday! This week in Morphology, we are finishing up our first unit of bases by playing games and doing activities with the vocabulary words using those bases. Speaking of vocabulary, the vocabulary.com assignment is due tomorrow. My goal is to have them practicing the words outside of class. They have note cards with the words on them as well. I've learned that if I only give a few words in an assignment, the computer will randomly assign words to practice. That will be changed for the next unit, but for now, just encourage your child to do his/her best. They are learning some new words in the process, so it isn't all bad. :) On Thursday, we will start a new unit on <host> (enemy, stranger), <hosp> (guest, host), and <nym, nom> (name). Please continue to have your child read 30 minutes per night and review the morphology cards they have. I will be assigning a Freckle article for them to read starting tomorrow and due by Friday. This can be included in their 30 minutes of reading. Have a blessed week.

This week in morphology, we are continuing our study of the bases rote, vert/verse, and tort. The students have brought home morphology cards that should be reviewed nightly and at least once over the weekend. We will be focusing on applying all of the vocabulary and information we have learned from our word webs into different activities, games, and assignments. In addition to studying the morphology cards, the students should be reading 30 minutes per night. See you Tuesday night at 6:30 in the chapel!

This week in morphology we have started exploring the bases rote (wheel), tort (twist), and verse/vert (to turn). We are exploring new vocabulary using word webs. As we continue with our vocabulary, we will also be doing word sums, inferencing, word matrices and word games to name a few. Please have your child read for 30 minutes per night. I look forward to seeing you at Parent Night on Tuesday at 6:30 in the chapel.
