Block A: Today in class I explained the calendar and assignment expectations for our novel study unit. Over the weekend you need to complete your assigned reading and your sticky notes in order to be as prepared as possible for your first meeting on Tuesday.
Block C: Today I assigned your final project for short stories - to write your own original story - however I am not going to assign it for homework over the weekend - as you need to focus on the good copy of your paragraph. Take in all the feedback from your peer editor to make changes and improve your draft. On Tuesday I will collect 4 outlines, 4 drafts, 1 peer editing sheet and 1 double-spaced typed or hand-written in pen good copy.
Block D: Great work on your foreshadowing today! We read "Death by Scrabble" and "The Landlady" in class. We also completed the first foreshadowing chart - but the second one will not be homework - I will give you time in class on Tuesday.
Enjoy your long weekend everyone! We have so much to be grateful for!
