Today I collected the animals helping people matching sheet (Monday’s group CW).

HW: Read and annotate (talk to the text) …

  • source #2 “Animals Helping People”
  • source #3 “New Service Animal Rules”

DO NOT HIGHLIGHT WITH AGREE AND DISAGREE COLORS!

HW:

“MONKEY HELPERS”

Read and annotate (talk to the text).

By now, you should have read and annotated all three chapters of “Hamlet” by William Shakespeare.

You should pretty much know all the characters and the settings and the basic plot.

Your HW is to copy question 2 (from page 18) on to loose leaf.  Then switch to a colored pencil and answer using QAR.  You should do all steps of QAR except do NOT underline your proof in the text. HOWEVER … be ready to prove and defend your answer in class.

I collected all three parts of the final project today.

  • picture
  • S.A.R.
  • speech or thought bubble

Some students began practicing in groups for the performance of HAMLET Chapter One.

HW:

READ and ANNOTATE (talk to the text) HAMLET Chapters 2-3 (pages 15-17).

Please bring colored pencils to class tomorrow.

We worked on the final project part 3 today (thought or speech bubble).

I also checked the HW about Setting/Hamlet.

HW:

READ and annotate (talk to the text). “Hamlet” – ONLY CHAPTER ONE (page 14).

 

EXTRA CREDIT: Turn in an old cell phone that you don’t want any more. The phone must be dead but should still look like it works.  Do not bring in a cracked or obviously broken phone.

Most students took a quiz today. (check yesterday’s blog to see what was on the quiz)

HW:

1. Finish final project parts one and two. Read the directions!

  • PART ONE – Draw teen pic and color.
  • PART TWO – S.A.R.

2. Read and talk to the text – SETTING/HAMLET (pages 12/13)

FINAL PROJECT HOMEWORK:

Continue drawing your teen picture.  Do NOT color unless your 7th grade ELA teacher approved you to color.

If you have been approved to color, your HW is to finish coloring your teen.
