Hey everyone! Sorry for the long absence from the blog...
Here is where everyone should be as of Friday (A)/Tuesday (B):
1A, 3A - You should have read "A Day's Wait," answered the questions at the end of the story, completed the quickwrite, completed the worksheet that accompanied the story, and added on to that worksheet with the style chart. Please also complete the extended response question as follows:
Why does Schatz wait so long to share his fear of dying with his father? Using details and information from the story, explain what this choice reveals about Schatz’s personality. Use specific details from the text to support your answer.
4B, 5B - You should be to the same point as 1A and 3A once you have me for class on Tuesday. You will receive the extended response prompt then, so don't worry about it over the weekend.
6B - You should have finished "Dark They Were, and Golden-Eyed," turned in your notes while reading, and completed the purple mood worksheet. If you did not already turn those in, please bring them to class on Tuesday. We will go over them to make sure we are all on the same page and move on with the next item on the schedule.
For the most part, the subs reported pretty good behavior from everyone, so I'm very grateful for that. There are a few students that I know were spoken to or sent out of the class, so I will be speaking with those students individually.
*A note to the parents* If there are any parents that would be willing to donate boxes of tissues, it would be greatly appreciated as we all get through the winter weather and enter allergy season!
