Winter NWEA

Hello O. L. Smith Community,

Students are completing their NWEA for Reading and Language Usage this week. They are doing a phenomenal job with staying focused and doing their best on the assessment.

Students do have a bit of homework this week. They are expected to complete their argumentative essays at home and turn them in by 1/14. Also, students are expected to read Chapters 5 & 6 of “The Outsiders” on their own by Tuesday, 1/19. There will be a summative quiz on these chapters next Tuesday, which is purely content-based, as well as some activities to explore the chapters more deeply.

Students have been informed that I have “The Outsiders” PDF posted on the Resources Tab as well as the audiobook. Any student who does not like reading on electronics or does not have internet may borrow a book from me. However, if they do not return the book, they will be responsible for purchasing a new one.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me.

Ms. Timpf
