December 3 - December 6

ELA 7

The essential question for unit 3 is: What can cause a sudden change in someone's life?  As we read the first act of A Christmas Carol, we will explore this question.

During the first half of the play, students will work on comprehension, analysis, vocabulary, dialogue in a drama, and subject-verb agreement.

Below you will find the study guide, additional practice, and an answer key.  It is never too early to start preparing for a selection test.  Simply completing your work inside of class is not enough.  You need to study outside of class for each test and complete the Study Island assignments which correspond with the material on the test.

*Transitions is due by the end of the day on Wednesday
*Structure of Literature is due by the end of the day on Friday
