Tuesday, last week of 1st quarter!!
SL-
Students should continue to work on their vocab/ roots for the exam on Thursday. We will begin reading chapter 23 on Wednesday. The reading has been a bit slow and I think we are all ready to wrap up the book, but my attempt to give homework was only met with about 50% compliance, so I don't have another option than reading in class. We will begin 2nd quarter with the essay on this novel.
HL-
Students are finishing up the three body paragraphs of their essay. I am conferencing with each student 1:1 this week to review one of their paragraphs. These essay's will be due after the long weekend. Kids should also be studying for vocab exam!!!
