Periods 1 and 2

We turned in our final JA projects and shared our dream jobs. We completed Light in the Forest Chapter 16 (our final writing assignment/assessment for the novel); if you did not complete this in class, it is due at the beginning of class on Tuesday. We finished with a Geography Bee - great job, kids!

Period 3

We turned in Light in the Forest Chapter 16 (our final written assignment/assessment for this novel). If you missed the deadline, please turn it in as soon as possible to keep from losing additional points. When finished, your novel should be turned in.

We also went over our independent reading program requirements and due dates; all reading pages are due by Monday after Thanksgiving, and your Reading Projects are due next Tuesday!

Period 5 - 6
Reminder: Reading Projects are due next Tuesday!

We read each other's conclustions to Light in the Forest; we responded in writing to what we read with compliments/comments. We discussed groups in society; political, social, etc. and began looking at techniques of characterization and point of view (author). To be continued tomorrow.....
We also nearly completed the Geo Bee; we will finish on Wednesday.
