Friday's class: A new outside reading assignment

If you would like to get emails from Remind 101 as well or instead of texts, check out this link: Email Remind 101

FIRST AND FIFTH PERIOD: Today we took the Vocabulary test on Lesson 4. 

Journal:  What would you do if you became the possessor of an instant fortune?  How do you think you would react?  

Then, everyone checked out a copy of The Pearl by John Steinbeck.  

The homework for the week is for everyone to read Chapters 1 and 2, and write a log using a different sentence stem for each night, using DETAILS from the text to support and extend your writing.  It works out to 5 pages every night, although you may read it all at once or in bigger chunks.  The journal page is in our google docs folder.  Here is the link: Sentence Stems for each night of reading

THIRD PERIOD:  Today we took the Vocabulary Test on Lesson 4.

Then, each person read for about 5-10 minutes from a book off of Mrs. LaMonte's shelf.  If they liked the book, they filled out this half sheet: Half Sheet Check out/ Weekly Page Assignments

Students then had a opportunity to go the library and find a book to read for the next month.  Everyone was asked to turn in the Half Sheet by the end of the period.  They will be returned on Monday.
