8th Grade ELA - Kennedy

Yesterday students were given the Course Syllabus for all 8th Grade English classes.  We discussed the requirements for being successful this year.  Today we discussed the IB traits and what it means to be an IB school/student. 

Students were then shown the writing prompt to be used for our On-Demand writing assessment.  Tonight as homework students are to decide on a debatable topic and find evidence to back up their "side".  Students will be writing for the entire hour tomorrow as their baseline assessment.
