From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
This fun story of the two run-aways, Claudia and Jamie, continues as they try to solve the mystery of the statue of the angel. Could Michelangelo be the artist? Will Claudia and Jamie continue to successfully hide out in the Metropolitan Museum of Art? Will Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler be able to help Claudia and Jamie with the "Angel" mystery? We were able to read Ch. 7-8 in class today so we will be doing questions and illustrations for those chapters on Monday. We will be reading Ch. 9-10 and completing those chapter questions and illustrations also next week. The Ch. 6-10 test is TBA next week.
English:
We will continue the study of verbs: Writing With Verbs and Lesson 8 on subject/verb agreement (P. 110-113; 143)
Spelling Competition:
Grades 5-8 enter the Montgomery County Spelling Competition each year. We have a Spelling Bee in each homeroom first. There will be one representative from each homeroom and two additional representatives to participate in the Trinity School Competition. We had classroom spelling bees today to select our first four representatives. On Monday, the four runner-ups from today's competition will have a spelldown, and the two winners of that competition will join the other four representatives for the school competition. Good luck to all of our winners! The Trinity School Competition will be held on Dec. 7th at 3:30. We will send a reminder of this date to the participants in the school competition after Thanksgiving.
