right-397566Y-Book Weekly Homework AssignmentsAbove each entry, label with the date and type (Y?, QQ, OC, WW). Skip at least two lines between entries. Start a fresh page each week. You need to do these assignments each week that school is scheduled, even when the weeks are shortened. Be sure to check the website for further information about due dates on a weekly basis. Why question (due every Monday): Write down a question (something you truly want to know) beginning with the word “why.” You may not repeat questions, and at the time you ask them, you should not know the answers to them. Quotation Quotient (due every other Wednesday): Write down a quotation from a song or other media source and explain why it “speaks” to you. This quotation may be a phrase or a complete sentence; it should not exceed two full sentences. Include proper citation (identify the source) and use proper punctuation, spelling, and capitalization. Remember that quotations go inside of quotation marks.Observation Connection (due every other Wednesday): Make a connection between any content from language arts or social studies and any other area of your life. Write down what you have seen, heard, experienced, etc.; where & when it has happened; and the class item it connects to. Complete sentences are NOT required.Word Wizard (due every Friday): Choose one of the following options.Write down a word, new to you, that you found this week. Transcribe the source of the word and the sentence in which you heard/saw the word. Then write its meaning in your OWN words. Choose one of this week’s five roots/affixes featured in the classroom vocabulary corner. Find a word containing that root/affix. Make sure to check the meaning to make sure you truly have used the root/affix correctly. Write the entire word in two colors, separating the root from prefixes and suffixes. Then write its meaning in your OWN words.Grateful Grammar (extra credit to be shown when other Y-Book HW is checked): Find real life grammar mistakes, write them down, and correct them using editing marks. Grammar categories include punctuations, capitalization, spelling, usage, subject-verb agreement, etc. Be respectful to the people who’ve made the mistakes; if I find out otherwise, this assignment will be eliminated from your repertoire. Hint: menus and billboards will prove to be great sources of grammar mistakes.00Y-Book Weekly Homework AssignmentsAbove each entry, label with the date and type (Y?, QQ, OC, WW).
