Hi IEW Class,

Somehow we got a little ahead.
We did lesson 6A Yesterday.  (Damocles and the King, Sec 1 RD)

We will be back on track for the 11/5 lesson, as it was going to cover 2 weeks.  Now it will just be lesson 6B instead of both.

Schedule:
10/22  Lesson 6A
10/29  No class.  Work on vocabulary cards at home.
11/5    Lesson 6B
11/12  Lesson 6C  (Back on Schedule)

Reminder- there is no class next week on 10/29.
Make this the day to put together your vocabulary cards.
Find the vocabulary list in the Teacher Book for All Things Fun and Fanciful.
Get a pack of Notecards.
Photo copy the vocab word and definition, and glue the word on one side, and the definition on the other.  (or have them write it down.)
In one hour, you should be able to get the entire year vocab words done... ready to study.

Also, everyone is doing great on their papers.
I tried to hand back everyone's papers so they could see how they were doing.
Please make your best effort to mark your own papers... (underline the dressups, and label in the right margin.)  Mark your sentence starters in the left margin.  I have a sample of how to do this on my blog.

Thanks for all your great effort!

Ms. Candi

Week 9/10/2012

Hi IEW Elementary Class!

So, our first class went great!

We have a homework assignment due on Monday.  Don't worry.  It's not terrible.

They need to complete the Key Word Outline for "Life Preservers", and turn it in.  If you and your child are familiar with IEW, you can also write this paragraph out to turn in.  If this is your first experience, just complete the Key Word Outline.  See the teachers manual attached below.  

I've put together dates for each lesson.  Please visit my blog for more helpful links for this class.  This is where I will be posting any updates for the class, etc. during the school year.

English Grammar & IEW

Helpful Add-ons to print out.

These two 8 1/2 x 11 pages I made are to help memorizing sentence structures.

It can go along with CC Essentials, as well as IEW (Institute for Excellence in Writing).

Click to enlarge:  IEW Sample Paper.  (8 1/2 x 11) 

IEW Sample Paper:

1.  Dress-ups are listed on the right.

2.  Sentence Starters are listed on the left.

3.  Each paragraph: Topic Sentence and Clincher reflection words highlighted.

4.  Not shown:  Introduce Subject (1st line of paper) and Final Clincher (last line of paper) reflection words in Bold.

5.  Nice to have:  Highlight your Final Clincher and Title reflection words.  Not shown above.

I still haven't figured out how they did this on the computer with the dress-ups and starters in the margins.  We just underline and highlight on the computer, and then add the notes in the margins by hand.
