Students remember that your syllabus needs to be signed and turned in by Monday, September 8. The writer's notebook needs to be decorated by your next block class this week (Sept. 9 or Sept. 10).
Narrative Writing: We are currently working in a narrative writing unit. Through daily quick writes and looking at examples of good narrative writing, we will be experimenting with voice, writing techniques and style. By the end of the week, students will start a story board for their narrative essay.
Reading: Students should be reading at outside of English class three times a week. This week we will start recording the times and places. Also, this week students will have their first status of class, where they present the book they are reading, current page number, and a brief description of what part they are at in their book.
Everyday Editing: Students will continue to observe and discuss sentence patterns, as well as distinguishing between telling and showing details.
