ELA 7
This week students will continue to work on the excerpt from Silent Spring. We covered comprehension and analysis last week, so we will focus more on conventions, vocabulary, and craft and structure this week.
We are going to complete a text dependent analysis essay during class. Students will complete the graphic organizer on Monday and write one paragraph per day. I will be conferencing with students each day and providing feedback. The essay is due at the end of the double class period on Friday. Click on the link to view a copy of the assignment.
As of now I'm going to plan on having the selection test on Friday; however, the date may change depending on the weather. Students have a copy of the study guide. Additional copies, additional practice, and the additional practice answer key can be obtained by scrolling down on my blog or from last week's email update.
In addition to working on the selection and the TDA, students will have time to work on their Study Island assignments.
Have a great week!
Mrs. Fowler
