8th grade: Today in Language Arts-Writer's Workshop

All students read in their books for 10 minutes. We reviewed the correct answers to last week's vocabulary quiz. Then students finished the activity they started on Friday-making pieces of clothing that state the writing strategy they want to remember when we begin to write our short stories.

Students read the handout "Some seeds to start your fiction" and then we spent the remainder of class beginning to write our short stories.

Homework (for 8B): None. But for 8A: Finish reading article and write 1-2 paragraphs of your short story.
