If you have not reviewed your child's writing and signed the reflection form,
please do so tonight.
This term we are focusing on opinion writing and students reviewed its essential components. Moving forward, students will practice writing evidence-based arguments.
Yesterday, we continued reading Gathering Blue and students discussed similarities and differences between the main characters, Jonas and Kira.
During social studies we continued learning about Reconstruction and the reintroduction of discriminatory laws in the South after the Civil War. We read a passage about Jim Crow and began taking Cornell notes. Some students will be bringing the organizer home so they can finish their notes and organizer. The text is attached on Edmodo and students should have their login information.
