Persuasive and Text Structures

We have been reading, reviewing, and responding to persuasive text and various text structures including, cause/effect, problem/solution, and compare/contrast. I've been using some articles, and also stories from the basal reader on the Twilight Zone! Do you remember those episodes? I sure do.
We are reviewing and adding new figurative language terms. Each term had assignments and/or projects attached to them. Maybe you heard about our famous voice threads you will be able to view on the blog! So excited about that!!!!!
Please continue to have them read every night and add up those auction bucks. If they haven't mastered the list of roots/affixes and their definitions make sure they are devoting some study time to that as well I test them every other week right now until they master them:)
