I hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend break and had a wonderful Eid! This week we will continue reading The City of Ember. Our focus will be on chapters 14 and 15, along with a pre-reading and post-reading activity. The pre-reading activity includes a prediction/journal writing task and the post-reading activity focuses on types of conflict. I highly recommend that students read the text and listen to the audio, simultaneously, to help build comprehension. Each activity is worth 10 points and due Sunday, May 31, 2020. The assignment had been uploaded in Google Classroom.
