Always check Google Classroom for updates on the class.

Students are working on their Writer's Workshop Literary Essay.  We completed through Day 5 and should be well on our way to understanding the theme of our chosen short story. Remember Tuesdays and Thursdays are journal entries, whether they are assigned topics or free writes.

Tuesday, November 17th is the trip to the Detroit Historical Museum.

Students should be reading their own novels and be finished with their first RBR by next Friday, November 20th.  Personal goals have been set in AR so students may see how they are progressing with their goals with each quiz taken.

Have a great weekend!
