Good morning! Here are a few ELA updates for this week:
- We began to read the short story “All Summer in a Day” yesterday and will finish it this week. This text is a great example of science fiction, and it is full of excellent examples of figurative language. If you have lost your copy, here is a link to the text: http://staff.esuhsd.org/danielle/english%20department%20lvillage/rt/short%20stories/all%20summer%20in%20a%20day.pdf
- We will be using this story to practice several skills, including summarizing, predicting, inferring, analyzing figurative language, analyzing characterization, and analyzing parts of plot!
- 5 ReadTheory quizzes (passed with 75% or higher) are due on Friday.
Have a great day!
