I cannot believe that this is the last post in March!  This school year will be over before we know it! That being said, progress reports will be going home on Friday.  Please make sure that you are keeping up with all of your assignments!

Today in Language Arts we continued to look at the novels we are currently reading.  It is Monday which means that each student should have turned in their reading log.  Also, guided reading chapter questions were due today.  Both of my novel groups worked on the word wall in class today.  They identified words that they do not know with their group mates.  Each student was assigned a word.  Tonight they are to go home and find the definition, come up with a sentence that uses the word, and a synonym for the word as it relates to our novel.  Some students finished this in class but most did not.  If you forgot what your word was, I have posted pictures to this blog post.  Make sure you have this done for tomorrow.  Your classmates are counting on you!

Students reading Divergent were given time in class to work on their chapters four and five guided questions.  They must also read chapter six for homework and identify words they do not know.  I expect all of this to be done for class tomorrow.

Students reading The Giver were given time in class to work on their chapter three guided questions.  They must read chapter four for homework and identify words they do not know.  This should be completed before class begins tomorrow.

Journal Topic:  Tell me about the book you are currently reading.  What is the setting?  Who is the protagonist/antagonist?  What is the plot?  Where did you get the book?

Have a great night everyone!
