This week we are working on Lesson 27 in our Storytown books.

 

Our focus skill for this week is still “inferences.” Remember when we make an inference, we have to use context clues and our own knowledge to draw conclusions.  The author does not always state directly everything we need to know about a story; so sometimes, we must make inferences. Good readers always make inferences as they read through a story.

 

Our Grammar skill for this week is “adverbs.” An adverb is a word that tells about a verb, an adjective or another adverb. It modifies or describes the verb, adj. or adverb. Most adverbs tell how, when or where; many adverbs end with –ly but NOT all adverbs.

 

Examples: I observed the crawling ants earlier.    * earlier is an adverb that tells “when”

                  You touched one ant gently.                * gently is an adverb that tells “how”     

                  Some ants left a trail here.                   * here is an adverb that tells “where”

 

Continue to study inferencing & study adverbs this week. There are extra worksheets on the website to provide additional practice.
