Yesterday and today students have been reading the story the Elevator. You can find a video recording of the story here. Students should have finished annotating the text and be prepared to discuss and or answer questions on the text on Monday. 1st and 2nd hour started answering questions today. 3rd hour will work on this on Tuesday.

Earlier this week I emailed you about interest in a parent-teacher conference. If you are interested and have a specific concern you need to speak with me about, please email me and I will share the sign-up form with you.
