Measuring Up Assignment Lesson 3 11/13-11/14 -11/15-11/16

Language Arts Students: All students must complete Lesson 3 in their Measuring Up text pages 22-25. Students will focus again on California Standard 8.1.3 Reading Vocabulary.

Students must copy down the definitions on page 22 for the following words: Definition, Restatement, Example, Comparison, and Contrast. After copying down the definitions students are then asked to come up with their own example for each of the words defined. This will help students clearly make the leap from defining to owning the words.

After defining and creating examples for each word students are then asked to read the story DNA for Dinner by Dora Lee pages 23-25. As you read please write down and answer in complete sentences all of the guided questions and the questions found on page 25.

This assignment is worth 40 points.
