In Reading this Week . . .

The 7th and 8th grade will continue with Literature Circles, meaning that the 7th grade will continue with The Giver and the 8th grade will continue with Twice Upon a Marigold. This week, the focus lessons will include point of view, foreshadowing, and imagery.

This morning, I reminded all 7th and 8th graders about their AR goals. Some students are needing to pick up the pace in order to meet their Quarter 1 goal. Again, whatever percentage of the goal that is met on Oct. 23rd is the grade they will receive as a test grade in Reading. Please encourage your students to be reading at home in addition to the time they spend reading at school. Thank you for your help.
