Good morning! Today we will finish up our new vocabulary words and then begin our study of Native American Literature.
PART ONE:
This week's words and roots are as follows:
FRACT/FRING/FRANG: fractious, infraction, infringe
CIS: excise, incisive, concise
TOM: tome, epitome, dichotomy, anatomy
PUNCT: compunction, punctilious, pungent
OBJECTIVE: Today we will assess our learning of last week's vocabulary terms and expand our Vocabulary through learning 4 roots and 13 words using those roots.
CCSS: Language 4. Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words and
phrases by using context clues and analyze meaningful word parts.
PART TWO:
We will begin our study of Native American Literature by watching Miss Lamb's Prezi and taking notes.
Here is a link to the Prezi: http://prezi.com/92orng31evry/native-american-literature/?auth_key=13822d7ede81934a12a4eac7b7507a58684af8c2
