February 24 - February 28

ELA 7

Students will be reading an excerpt from Silent Spring.  We will focus on analysis, vocabulary, craft and structure, and conventions.  As of now, the selection test is scheduled for Friday.  Below you will find a study guide, answer key, and additional practice.  


In addition to studying the selection, we will work through Study Island topics during the second half of the block. Students will have ample time to complete each assignment at school as long as they are using their time wisely.

Due by the end of the week:
  • Connotation and Denotation in Literature
  • Summarize Literature
  • Misplaced and Dangling Modifiers
Reminder: Podcasts are now due on or before March 6th.  Use the extra time wisely!
The TAT Roll for Red bowling tournament is on Friday.  I will be out as will most of the students in my classes.  Students not going on the trip will have time to work on Study Island, their podcasts, and their March Madness reading.
