First story test!

There will be a story test on Rogue Wave tomorrow!  This is an open book test but be sure to read the story over so it is fresh in your mind.

First real HW assignment!!!

Tonight students should write a sentence that provides context clues to each of the meanings of their five vocabulary words for Rogue Wave.  The words are as follows:    swell, deck, navigation, submerge, and porthole.  Please write one sentence per word and remember to give us clues to the meaning of the word within your sentence.

In other words, no sentences like, "She walked towards the deck."   There are no clues to the meaning of deck here.  Sentences such as this will not receive full credit.

There will be a quiz on these five words held on Friday.
