Quick update....written once already and then accidentally deleted. Oh technology, how I love and loathe you!
English:

We turned in Poe note organizers in the shape of a Raven on Tuesday.

Our disabilities themed literature circle is well under way. Students should be reading and working on their packets at home.

We will also be working on an in-class argumentative essay on their most treasured amendment. We are using the Smarter Balanced rubric that aligns with the Common Core Standards (ask to see it) Most of the work will be done in class. Only fine tuning and typing will happen at home. This will be due on Tuesday of next week.

In Civics... Chapter 5 Reading Focus questions and the Key terms are due Wednesday. Chapter 6 will follow.

If your student claims to have no work , they can always continue reading their choice books and complete their 40 entry dialectical journal. :)
