Making Conversation 4A

Tomorrow is our spelling test with our Antonym words. Practice using these words often, it is very helpful when you are learning to speak. Yesterday we were introduced to Synonyms. While Antonyms are words with opposite meanings, Synonyms are words that are the same or similiar.
Arrive-depart are Antonyms.
Arrive-come are Synonyms.
Learning these words is important. try to iclude them in your everyday speech. You will improve tremendously :)

Learning and talking about each other is vital too. Yesterday we answered questions about ourselves. Today you swapped the information with your partner and told the rest of the class about your partners using the information written. We will continue building on this using more complex questions..

Welcome!

Yesterday we had two new students join our class from the 2nd Grade. Welcome Burkhan and Adam. I hope you enjoy being with 3A and that you find our class fun!!

Remember students that the spelling test is on Wednesday and not Thursday, because Thursday is a holiday. You need to start memorising the plural nouns and using them correctly...

This week we began to learn about adjectives! Adjectives are words that describe a noun, and they tell us how a noun looks, feels, tastes, sounds etc.
So if I have the noun chicken, the words that describe it could be, fat, yellow, yummy, loud.
There was a loud chicken outside my home. I ate a yummy chicken. The yellow chicken ran away. The fat chicken sat on the ground. All these words describe the chicken and tell us about the chicken.

Your homework today, is the parts of speech worksheet with nouns, adjectives and verbs. You also have to complete the questions for the story, Pet Pests.

See you all tomorrow!
