Writing-
All research papers have been turned in and are in the process of being graded. The next writing assignment will be a persuasive letter. Students are also working on Chapter 3 Pronouns in their Language Network book. The most recent quiz on lessons 4-7 did not go as well as expected. Please remind your son or daughter to study daily and bring their grammar books home. There are also links to the right of my page for activities to complete on Chapter 3. Many students need extra practice with lesson 6 interrogative and demonstrative pronouns. The chapter 3 test will possibly be as early as next week. Please study at home.
Reading 8A-
Our last nonfiction story is about Roberto Clemente. Please make sure that you are studing the vocabulary words. After this story, we will have a unit test. The date is still to be determined.

Students as I said on Friday...our assessment on High Tide in Tuscan will be as soon as we return from the snow. If that is tomorrow...then we will have the assessment tomorrow. Please review the vocabulary words and examples from the text for the chart.
