Monday, September 29th

**Several important documents - including report cards, MAP scores, and a field trip form - are coming home today.  Make sure you check your child's red folder.**

We continued reading Gathering Blue and we compared the character traits of Jonas and Kira.   Students completed a T-chart of each characters' traits and main conflicts.  We also analyzed the setting and plot events by using our central idea to frame our discussion.  

We quickly reviewed simple, compound, and complex sentence types.  Students should use the notes below, if necessary, when completing their ELA homework.

We discussed how students should begin their answer to the Civil War causes question.  Tomorrow students will have time to write their answers.
