Monday Madness

Projects:  Students worked on presentations, which are tomorrow (Tuesday, 9/9).  After presentations, students will work with their partners to create their textbook chapters.  These are due Thursday, September 11.

7th and 8th Grade Reading:  Students summarized and illustrated passages on the northern and southern economy during the Civil War.  Cause and Effect organizers (revised and edited by students) were collected today.

Writing:  We are continuing to work on narrative writing.  Students are conferencing with me and beginning to put their thoughts into a story.  I'm impressed with their efforts to improve their word choice as they work.

**Student Council officer candidates are campaigning hard this week.  It's been terrific seeing all the creative posters come to school.
