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

All students read in their books for 10 minutes. We spent the remainder of the hour reading Flowers for Algernon and students shared the changes they noticed taking place in Charlie. Students spent the last five minutes of class answering the following question in their Reader's Notebooks: How does Charlie envision his life if he becomes smart? What does he think will happen if he becomes smart?


Homework: Read the one page article about Daniel Keyes, the author of FFA. Be prepared for a pop-quiz tomorrow on this reading!
