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

All students read for 10 minutes. I modeled for students how to do a BookShare and had them record the important information about my BookShare on the new BookShare sheet. Students worked in groups to outline another essay. We reconvened and I went over the answers to the outline with students. I then passed out a bibliography handout to students to help them see how to cite their sources in a bibliography page. I went over the expectations for work and behavior for the next 3 days (I will be on a fieldtrip with the seventh graders).

Homework: Make sure that you have your research annotated and an outline of your research completed by Monday, November 24th.
