Students Bold Actions Narrative will be due turned in by Wednesday, so that I may add the grades in for their progress reports.  Expect reports home by Friday.

Week of Nov. 29th

After reading several stories and articles about characters and people taking bold actions, now it is time for students to take a turn.  This week students will be working on a MyAccess.com assignment.  They will be writing their own narrative (fiction or nonfiction) about a character who chooses to take a bold action.  The final grades will be taken next Monday, so students can work on their stories during the week and weekends if they would like.

Students will be working in their Close Reader this week.  This paper back workbook allows us to annotate right in the book.  We will practice close reading techniques as well as work on our MyAccess stories.  And I must add, students are doing a wonderful job this year participating in class discussions and focusing on their work!  I'm very impressed with this years 7th grade.  It's been quite a pleasure so far.
