        Have you signed up for your February/March Book of the Month?

If you haven't picked up your January/February Book Assignment, pick it up from the bottom wire basket for your class.
If you haven't handed it in, hand it in to the top wire basket for your class.

2. Analogy:
In your composition book, right after the last analogy, Label it  Analogy and write and complete these (fill in the blanks).  Make sure your analogy really works.

tele: telescope ::  vis : ____________

3. Word Parts:
(Special Note for those who were wondering:  I checked and "visit" is from a Latin word part for "to see.")
Add these to your Composition Book under Word Parts (page 33).

micro = small

scope = examine

What other words can you think of that include the word parts "micro" or "scope"?
