Double the Fun

Here's some new vocabulary that we've had during the past week.  Several of the words are from the story we read about identical twins married to identical twins.  Does anyone remember the difference between identical and fraternal twins?   These twins are very famous in San Francisco.  Which kind are they?

Level 4, Fall 2012, 10:15

Welcome to level 4!  If you want to do some extra homework, you can check out my blog about once a week.  I post spelling lists, songs and other things to help you practice your English. Below is a short spelling list of some of the words we had from the first week.  These were words that weren't in the book so I thought you might like some extra practice.

Have fun!
