Homework 10/4

I am so sorry that there haven't been any posts lately! I have been having computer trouble at school so the assignments haven't been able to be listed.

One concern I have is that students are not doing a very good job at getting their reading logs turned in. They are worth 25 points and they add up quickly. There is a reading log due this Tuesday. Please double check to make sure it gets turned in.

Reading: Reading log due Tues. Students with AR points have a reading goal of a minimum of 50 pages, and students without AR have a reading goal to take a test or read a 100 pages, whichever comes first. The students are also supposed to finish reading the story from their text "Rikki Tikki Tavi" and find 3 vocab. words, mark the part they think would best be in a movie, and sticky note one question they have about the story.

English: This is an exciting time in my room, because we are working on the final drafts of our poems for the quarter. I am constantly amazed at what some of the kids have come up with. We worked on line and stanza breaks today, and we are typing our drafts in the lab. Their final draft poem is due next Friday. I will be posting some of those poems here on this website.
