All students read in their books for 10 minutes.
7th grade
Students took a pop quiz on sentence diagramming. They were asked to diagram simple subjects, predicates and adjectives. Thus far, it seems that 75% of the students did not pass the quiz. I will be reteaching these concepts next week.
We began reading Gary Soto's "First Love." On Tuesday, students will finish the story and plot the main plot using a plot diagram.
Homework: Enjoy your weekend!

Students took a pop quiz on sentence diagramming. Students were asked to diagram simple subjects, predicates, adjectives and adverbs. Students who did not pass will be asked to stay for tutorial as this was a review of last year's material. We will begin diagramming prepositions the week after next as an enrichment segment of writing a setting for our short story.
We read Gary Soto's "First Love." Students began diagramming the main plot and will continue to diagram the subplots of this story on Tuesday.
