All students read for 10 minutes in their independent books.
Both 7th and 8th graders brainstormed a list of significant events that have happened in their lives. After choosing one of these topics, students then spent the remainder of class writing the first draft of their personal essay. Please note that this paper will be used as a writing diagnostic and will help me determine the direction of our wriitng curriculum for the rest of the school year, so it is an important writing assignment.
7th and 8th Homework:
Finish your first draft of your personal essay. It is due tomorrow! Also, if you have not already turned in your Parent/Student Contract, tomorrow is the last day you may do so.
