Due: Thursday, September 19, 2013 (FI#3 & Statue of Liberty)

Due Thursday, September 19

Remember to put your homework in the clear-plastic IEW container when you pick up your family name tags at the beginning of co-op. 

There are 4 assignments that need to be submitted:

1)  KWO:      (handwrite)
Staple it to the back of your essay. ALWAYS do your KWO first. 
Write this - do not type this.
Make sure that your name and this due date (9-19-13) are written on the top right part of your paper. 

2) ESSAY: re-written Statue of Liberty paragraph.  (type)
This should be typed. Follow formatting rules! 
I have included a copy of the paragraph at the end of this homework assignment. 
Remember proper header ~~> Name over due date (9-19-13)  on the top right part of your paper.

3)  Vocabulary words.     (handwrite)
These are bolded in the "Fix Its." Be sure to include the definition, part of speech, and a sentence using the word correctly. Use your best handwriting. :-)
Name over due date (9-19-13)  top right.

4) Fix It  #3     (handwrite)
Name over due date (9-19-13)  on the top right. 
Determine if it is necessary to indent.
Be sure to underline subjects and verbs appropriately.
This week you will find your first faulty homophone. Be sure to "Fix It."

~~> A homophone is a word that sounds like another word but may be spelled differently (for example: sail & sale).
Also, if you see both conversation and an attribution, be sure to identify the subject/verb in both of them. 
~~> An attribution tells you who said the words in the quotes. “I love you,” said Mom.
“I love you” is the quote; “said Mom” is the attribution.

“That Tom will play hooky from school today,” she thought too herself.
 

During supper Aunt Polly questioned Tom in a roundabout way.
 

“The heat must ‘a’ been overpowering in school today, hmm, Tom? Maybe you
wanted a swim?”
 

Suddenly wary, Tom replied coolly, “No’m, but we dunked our heads under the
pump, Auntie.”
