Inference: Camping Out
Read this letter from Mikey to his grandparents. Then answer the questions in Classroom, Reading in Google Forms.
Dear Grandma and Grandpa,
We are camping at Bear Forest. All sorts of interesting things have happened. Freddy ran off with one of those stakes for the tent and buried it somewhere. That's okay, though. A lopsided tent has lots of character. Today, we went hiking in the forest for most of the day. I collected some really interesting plants that have leaves that grow in clumps of three. I wanted to show you some, but Mom told me to get rid of them right away. After supper, we built a big bonfire and got marshmallows out to toast, but a sudden thunderstorm forced us into our tent. (That's why I'm writing you this letter.) The rain is fine with me. Worms are crawling around everywhere, and Dad says they will come in handy tomorrow.
I guess that's all for now. Besides, I can't stop itching.
Love,
Mikey
The Annunciation
After watching this video, go to Classroom, Religion and complete your exit ticket.
Thank you
Thank you to all my scholars who turned in their assignments on-time, including the ones turned in last night.
