We've experienced a "cooling off" period in regards to the weather, and boy is it NICE!!! Love Fall and the cool weather and all of the colors, smells, and activities that go with it. Baseball and softball play-offs begin, football has started, basketball is quickly approaching, and the State Fair has ended--all signs that Fall is right around the corner. Can't Wait!!
Here are the assignments for the week of Sept. 23-27, 2013 in 8th Lang. Arts:
Vocab. Wb. Less. #7=Due Thursday. We are skipping the Review.
Spelling Less. #7=Workbook and test due Friday.
Crazy Ads Assignment teaching Alliteration with Power Point or Prezi demonstration due Wed. Might give kids an extra day and make them due Thurs. if they need time to work on the computers. Will determine that after class on Tues. We will do the same assignment again next Monday, but use Similes instead of Alliteration.
Creative Writing Paragraph/Essay Assignment--I have a website that I pull various creative writing prompts off of. We discuss the Process of Writing and then pick one of the prompts. We will do this Thursday and Friday, a different prompt and assignment each day. Thursday will be just a paragraph, Friday will be a 3 paragraph essay.
