March 26 - March 29

English Lit/ English Comp

This week students will finish their "Sowing Community" essays.  I have been grading each paragraph as students have completed it.  If your student has a stamp by each paragraph, that means that he or she has earned full credit.  If a student is missing stamps, that means that they need to make corrections or they did not show their work to me.  As of the end of the day today, students should have 4 completed paragraphs/4 stamps.  We will finish the 5th paragraph tomorrow.  Therefore, the essay is due at the end of the class period on Tuesday.

*Test on Wednesday/Thursday
Students will complete a graphic organizer/essay over the course of 2 class periods.  I am going to count this as a test grade.  Once again, I will grade the essays as they are completing them.

In addition to working on essays, we will also complete root words and affixes, word relationships, and technical meanings.  All 3 topics will be due on Study Island on Thursday.
