5th Grades. Superlatives.

Today we started with Superlatives, it is very similar to Comparatives, so I am sure there will be no problems to undestand.
Just REMEMBER:

I am the YOUNGEST of my class. ----> Soy el más joven de mi clase.
The lion is the STRONGEST animal in the jungle. ---> El león es el animal más fuerte de la jungla.

BUT....

She is the MOST beautiful girl in my class. ----> Ella es la niña más bonita de mi clase.

Big biggest
Weak weakest
Ugly ugliest
Light lightest
heavy heaviest

most intelligent
most handsome
most beautiful

6th Grades . "A Little Princess".

Remember that "A little Princess" reading is finishing next week.
So, Quiz II (Chapter 4, 5, and 6) is coming soon.
Study the new vocabulary.
Results of the first Quit were very good. Congratulations.
