Mr. McGrath’s Class

Same as before. Click on the comments link below this. After you do that, type in your name, your email address, and the anti-spam word. Then type your sentences. Once you have checked to make sure they are correct, hit submit comments. They might not show up right away because they are sent to me before they are published. I will publish them for everyone else to see a couple times during the night.

So, give me your best sentences. You will get your name in the jar if you write your sentences here. Then I will pull a winner to pick from the prize box!

This week I want you to write a paragraph using the words from our spelling list.  Use at least ten words. The paragraph should have a topic sentence and be at least six sentences long. Post the paragraph in the comments section. Good luck!

Be creative, and make sense!

Proofread, spellcheck, proofread, spellcheck!

This week we would like to do something different by having you list one word that contains each prefix/root. For example, you could use the word universe for the prefix uni-. Another example of this would be; bio: biofeedback. 

Type your answers in the comments. Be creative and use a dictionary if you can’t find a word.

Here you go! Have fun with the sentences. Please write them in Microsoft Word or another application so that you can use SPELL CHECK.  Read the sentences to yourself to see if they MAKE SENSE. I am really liking capital letters today. You can also write a paragraph if you would prefer to do that instead of sentences. A paragraph will get you two pieces of paper for the raffle jar.

Have fun!

This week we are doing something different. Instead of writing sentences, I want you to select five words (spelling words) and write their definition from your dictionary. You can get extra credit if you give me some examples of similes and metaphors. You will get a paper for the raffle jar if you participate.

Good luck!
