Picture for week of 11/22-11/26

This week, being a short week, we spent most of our class time learning correct comma usage. The picture above speaks for itself on the importance of commas. The rest of the week we either played word riddle games or observed Thanksgiving weekend.

11/22-11/26

This week, we played a pretty cool game. Ms.Nickow gave each of us a note card with a picture on it, we had to find the other person with the same picture and describe ideas and thoughts related to the picture. This game taught us about abstract and concrete nouns. Abstract nouns are things you feel and concrete nouns are things you can touch and see. The next day, we learned about how commas are really important on the ACTs, we should know how to use them, and when to use them. In this short week we had a great time learning.
