March 25-29
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Here’s what we accomplished this week in language arts-
Reading: This week we read and answered practice Air Test articles/questions in preparation for our State Test in April. We read about The Silk Road and we read about the positives and negatives of video games.
Writing: This week students wrote a practice argumentative essay on Video Games. Students had to choose whether or not video games have a positive or negative effect on a person’s well-being.
Grammar: This week we continued to practice prepositions, words that describe the relationship between other words. In a couple of weeks, students will be introduced to adverbs, words that tell how, when, where, or to what extent.
Book Review: For fourth quarter, students will not be required to read an independent reading novel as they will be reading our class novel at home. Periods 1, 5, 8 will be reading Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. Period 4 will be reading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
Midterm Exam: As soon as all the exams are finished, I will pass them back and go over the results with students. I have about three students left to finish.
Blog: Please visit our team blog at teamclassy2015.weebly.com for important information and homework assignments.
Upcoming Assignments (may change slightly due to student needs)
Monday – None
Tuesday – None
Wednesday – None
Thursday – Outsiders – Read Chapter 1 and fill out graphic organizer
451 – Answer pre-reading questions about 451
Friday – Outsiders – Read Chapter 1 and fill out graphic organizer

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
