Today in Language Arts-Writer's Workshop

All students added up the number of pages they read for the week and submitted their Reading Folders.

7th grade:
I gave instructions and examples for parts three and four of the Character Building Activities. Students spent the majority of class working on these parts. The last ten minutes of class, students took turns sharing their favorite aspect of their character from parts 1-4.

Homework: If you have not already, complete CBA 1-4.

8th grade:
I gave instructions and examples for the last two parts of the Character Building activity-parts five and six. Students worked on these parts in class and I conducted several writing conferences with struggling students. The last five minutes of class, students described their protagonist by sharing their favorite part with the rest of the class.

Homework: If you have not already, complete CBA 1-6.
