October 10th-12th: Short Week for Fall Break!

Thanks to those of you who were able to eat at Chili's on Wednesday night to support our iRead program!

Last week our classes worked very hard learning more literature device terms and grammar, as well as continuing with our Literature Circles. Some of the items we had planned to learn were not discussed because we needed to take more time on others.

This week coming up is a short week. We have Fall Break on October 13th and 14th. We will use our time wisely Monday through Wednesday to learn the remaining literature devices for this unit and complete the grammar lessons we need to finish.
