ELA News Week of 9/21

*Students should continue to be reading their September book.  We will be doing our monthly one pager, which is similar to a test/book report, in class on the 30th.  The one pager can't be done ahead of time, so the best way for them to prepare is by having their book completed and also to do their Weekly Reading Evidence paragraphs to practice writing about their book.

Monday: Starting literature circles for Freak the Mighty. We will also learn about theme.

Tuesday: Read a short fiction story and analyze its theme. Work time for lit circle reading and role sheets.

Wednesday: Lit circle discussion. Will read a non-fiction article in class as well.

Thursday: Write an objective summary of the non-fiction article from Wed. (turned in for a grade)
                Students will also get time to work on their Weekly Reading Evidence paragraph 3 (also turned in for a grade- due by Fri).

Friday:  Lit circle discussion.  Work time on Weekly Reading Evidence paragraph 3.
