Lesson 7 – The Study of the Seasons

Quizlet
We had some time in class to use Quizlet. There is a set I have made just for this class. The vocabulary test will be from this list. I have added the vocabulary from Unit 5.


We had a vocabulary quiz from our list today using the Quizlet Test task.

Textbook U5: The Study of the Seasons
After doing the Vocabulary Preview activity, we did the reading As Spring Comes Early (pp. 34-35) in class. We also did the Reading Comprehension task (p. 36) together.
