Projects: Some students are still trying to figure out their model using simple machines to complete a simple task. It's hard work and they've done well! We will work on presentations for the rest of the week and present next week.

8th Grade Reading: Students took a short quiz on To Kill a Mockingbird yesterday. Today we watched "The Week in Rap" and started our discussions. Students need to study the website and be prepared for a Flocabulary quiz tomorrow. 

7th Grade Reading: Students are working on determining  narrative elements of The Outsiders. Today we read chapter 6 together and students need to read chapter 7 independently for homework tonight. 

Writing: We will be doing numerous short essays around our novel The Outsiders. We are starting with a comparison/contrast on the similarities between the Socs and Greasers. Next week we will write about which one we would rather be, using evidence from the text.

We will have an auction on Thursday. Please send in items if you are able.
