All On-Level classes are reading The Giver by Lois Lowry. All AC classes are reading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. If you are able, please consider purchasing your student their own copy so they can mark up the text.

Tuesday-Wednesday: Writing (Lessons and Revisions) Thursday: Media Center/Writing Day Friday: Reading Day Revised essays are due by Friday. They will NOT be accepted after the break. They must be written on the provided paper in blue or black ink. All students will take the Benchmark Test tomorrow. This will count as a performance task grade. This test will cover 8th grade standards.
Progress reports were sent home on Friday. Please note, if you are pleased with your grade, now is not the time to become complacent. You will have to continue working to maintain it. However, if you were not pleased with your grade, you still have time to pull it up. Please remember that I grade on ACCURACY and not completion.
Finish your Utopia planning sheet. Groups will present tomorrow.
Read the play, 1984, in the Google Classroom. We will assign parts either Wednesday or Thursday. Don't forget to complete the USA Testprep assignments. The deadline is January 31st. |
