Coming Next Week

We have a busy week in store. Make sure you are organized:

Reading
Monday: Finish your 2nd Book club entry
Membean: You will need to complete 50mins of Membean this week

Writing
Tuesday: Sentence Clauses Test (Use the links to practice)
Sentence Clauses Unit Review: Ask the Teacher
Which Where That Who (Ignore any questions that contain these words - we will learn how to write 'relative clauses' after SB - These are NOT on the test.)
Editing on RF stories
Read this story for tomorrow's class. Any notes you take can be used in the lesson.
Written text - Read out loud text (15mins)

Reading
Wednesday: In class RR. You will be given a piece of text to read on Tuesday: The Marble Champ 
Written text - Read out loud text (15mins)
30mins to write a response on it based on any of the skills we have done in our unit.

Writing
Thursday: RF  Stories due. You will turn your story in on the google doc you are working on.  During class, you will also have to make a slideshow that take screens shots from your writing piece that show the craft moves you have made through your story.

Reading
Friday: Membean Test (50 questions)
Library Visit
Writing Celebration.

Students may resubmit their Grammar Memory Hooks at any time during next week.

There will be no H/W officially set. (apart from reading the short story Tue. and Membean)  You should use your evenings to prioritize your work. As a reminder, going forward, if you want to retake a summative test or turn in your RF later than the due date,  you will have to do MORE work before being allowed to resubmit. (See the REDO file on the right of  the blog.) Easier and better (double comparative) to get it turned in and finished when due!

  7. I am not sure Jordan. I think that we would have to present it. Then we get more out of it because the more you talk about it, the more you will learn about it.

  8. At a minimum, how long does your RF story have to be?

  9. I agree with the picture, we are having a big spectrum of work just FLOWING in from all of our teachers so that we can finish it all up before Spring Break! (Membean word!)

  11. Hence the importance of using class time effectively and staying on task. If you use your class time effectively in RLA, you will have little to do at home for RLA this week.

  15. Mr Buxton,
    We can't actually view the written text. The link takes you to a blank page with no URL.
