All students read in their books for 10 minutes. Eighth graders had classroom manager interviews today; seventh graders will have their interviews tomorrow. Managers will be announced when we return from the Labor Day weekend, on Tuesday, September 2nd.
7th grade
We reviewed simple subject and predicate diagramming. I went over the answers to last night's homework with the students. I taught students how to diagram adjectives. Then students participated in a station activity where they traveled to different stations around the room and diagrammed subjects, predicates and adjectives. We reviewed the correct answers to this activity together as a class.

8th grade
We reviewed plot structure. Then we read a short story by Alice Walker called "The Flowers" and within groups, diagrammed the plot structure for this story. We discussed the different plot components and how they were organized in this story. We reviewed diagramming subjects, predicates, adjectives and adverbs . Students were then given sentence strips which they diagrammed with their groups.
