Block 1
We took our STAR reading assessment in the library. We discussed independent reading and received our first reading logs in class. We will have our first visit to the library to check out books tomorrow! Remember your ASB cards! You will need an independent reading book in class DAILY starting this coming Monday. In Social Studies, we reviewed geographic (physical) features and states; quiz over that information will be on Friday.

We also read an article on study habits from the NYTimes; we analyzed what the author said, looked at who the author was and discussed our thoughts (did we agree or disagree) in our small groups. We filled out a reading log for the article as an example (and yes...you can count those pages!) Remember - Social Studies map test coming up this Friday!
