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.

There is some uncertainty this week due to conflicting weather reports. Ideally, I would like to review how to write a text dependent analysis. Students will read "Sowing Community" and write an introduction, 3 body paragraphs, and a conclusion. We will review the components and write one paragraph per day during class. This means that students should not have homework.
We will also work on varied sentence structure, pronouns, and possibly verbs. As always, students will have time during class to complete their Study Island requirements. Remember, students may keep working at a topic until they earn whatever score they desire; however, I will not accept submissions after the due date. Varied Sentence Structure and Pronouns are due on Friday.
Have a great week!
