Monday, May 2 (C-Day)

Science: Worked on quiz corrections and did Wave Stations. I-Search Paper is due on Wednesday.

Pre-Algebra: We continued to work on lesson 8.2. We are now writing equations in function form. Homework-worksheet 8.2, # 23 - 27, rewrite in function form and then graph.

LA - I only saw one 8th grade class today. We literally took a topic and wrote a paper together. We talked about a good introduction and how to write one. How to write a thesis and were it should be placed in the paper. We went through transitions, supporting details etc. Tomorrow we will finish up with the conclusion. This is in lieu of their last literary analysis and what they need to focus on. They should not retell a story, but support it. We will be doing the same thing on F day, May 5th for the rest of the 8th grade. I will be introducing their new writing assignment tomorrow.  HW - Students will be taking their A.R. quiz tomorrow so their  novels should be completed.
