Welcome Back!!!

Welcome back to school!!! Whether you are new to my class or if I was your teacher last year, school is looking a LOT different right now.
We don’t know when we’ll be back in the building, but we all need to do our best to make sure that we keep moving on with our learning.
If you have not already, you need to log into Schoology and check out what you have to do this week. One of those things is to work on your summer Project. Scroll down on this blog to find those details. I will tell you this…
- You need to read an approved chapter book. If you’re not sure, ask me.
- You need to write THREE PARAGRAPHS ON A GOOGLE DOC (NOT A SLIDE. IF YOU TURN IN A SLIDE BY ITSELF WITH NO GOOGLE DOC YOU WILL NOT GET A PASSING GRADE.) that tells me what the THEME of your book is and HOW you know that it is the theme.
- You ALSO need something artistic that SHOWS the theme of the story. This CAN be a Google Slide, but it can also be a (nice) drawing of a scene in the book, a diorama, a paper mache sculpture, whatever.
- YOU MUST DO BOTH STEP 2 AND STEP 3.
There is no due date yet. We will talk more about that later so don’t stress. However, if you haven’t even started your project yet, you should get going. Now would be good.
I will be available online for your questions this week from 8-11. Don’t forget that we are off Friday through Monday. On Tuesday, we will begin using our schedule to have live classes.
See you all soon!
Hi Mrs.Brown it’s me Mariam I’m in your class this year! I was just wondering is Facing East From Indian Country a chapter book or a history?? Because the book doesn’t say Chapter 1 and all the other chapters so I was wondered if it was a chapter book
Hi Mariam! This is a nonfiction book, definitely history. You’ll need a fiction chapter book. What do you like to read?
Ok thanks Mrs.Brown 🙂
I like to read Drama books there so interesting to read.
Hello Mrs.Brown I am new this year and here are just 5 out of the rest of the books I read.
Prophecy by Ellen Oh
Warrior by Ellen Oh
King by Ellen Oh
Wrath of the Storm by Jennifer E. Nielsen
The Traitors game by Jennifer E. Neilsen.
(All the books are fiction). I did 4 summaries and 1 book project should I send it to you?
Welcome, Maryam! Choose your favorite one. You’re not going to just write a summary, you need to write three paragraphs about the theme of the book and how you know it’s the theme. Check back with me if you don’t understand. You can email me at brownj@dearbornschools.org or message me on Schoology.
Yo Mrs Brown its me Nasser alachaar can I write about the book the mouse and the motorcycle its a chapter book it has 13 chapters and its by Beverly Clearly.
Yes, Nasser, you may.
Hello Mrs. Brown,
I just wanted to ask when this project is due, I was told it wasn’t due on the first day of school, but wasn’t told the exact date.
Thank you and have a wonderful summer!
Summer’s over! 🙂 No, it’s not due the first day of school (today). We’ll talk about it in class next week.
Hi, I know I am in 8th grade now I just wanted to know that when is the project due for us please let me know as soon as possible Thank you for your time.
Wahda, email Ms. Moroz. She’s your teacher now and will tell you when it is due.
