Social Studies we are learning about Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome.

Our new story in Reading class is called “Storm-a-Dust.” We looked over our new vocabulary and spelling words. The skill for this story is setting. Students practiced identifying the setting, or time and place, of a story. The setting of a story can influence what happens to a character and how the character behaves. Finally, we continued practice with possessive nouns in both Reading and Writing classes. Remember: we only add an apostrophe to form the possessive of plural nouns that end in -s.
Examples:
Add a -‘s to the plural noun children because it does not end in -s = children’s books
Add a -s to the plural noun chickens because the plural form of this word contains a -s = chickens’ feathers
