Welcome Back! I hope everyone enjoyed their week off.
During Social Studies classes tomorrow, students will be going to the theatre for the Black History Assembly. We will also have a fire drill on Tuesday. Math tutoring will be on Wednesday at 8:35 am. Friday will be House Cup with concessions. March 13th will be an early release day. This week in ELA, we will be working on argumentative writing. Students will be working on creating a visual debate by stating a claim, using relevant evidence to support their claim, and arguing against a counterclaim. For vocabulary this week, we will be studying ELA vocabulary related to argumentative writing. We will be studying: controversy, argument, claim, counterclaim and evidence. For warm ups, we will be using the RACES strategy for opinion writing. We will also begin planning our book report over the novel Walk Two Moons. For homework, students need to study their vocabulary. There will be a test on Friday over their vocabulary words. Remember USATestPrep is a good way to improve your skills. There are activities assigned to our class that you can complete to help you improve your skills.
