Monday
NWEA testing tomorrow – Language. This is the last day of testing!
8th Grade
JOURNAL: Logos – – Using the strategy of LOGOS, convince your parents you should be allowed to start driver’s ed as an 8th grader (pretend this is possible).
Today students worked with their groups the “finalize” the rough drafts of their Pathos and Logos ad ideas and they then started working on their Ethos idea.
HOMEWORK: Summer IXLs are due Friday. I called students who were missing any IXLs up to my desk to remind them.
6th Grade
3rd hour ONLY
JOURNAL: Your Choice – – Write about whatever you would like for 5 minutes and at least half a page.
Today we discussed the “Two Brothers” and took notes on the plot diagram in our notebooks.
6th hour ONLY
JOURNAL: Miserable – – Explain what makes you miserable.
Today in class we used the story “The Two Brothers” and dissected it into the individual parts of the plot diagram. We will practice this more and students will be expected to do this with a short story given to them un a quiz in the next few weeks.
HOMEWORK (3rd and 6th hours): I checked in the 4 IXLs that were due today (A.1, B.1, B.2, and F.1). Many students need to complete these. When a student has finished one of these IXLs, they need to email that they have finished it and include the letter and number of the one they have completed.
