6th: Today Ms. Devine was out with her advisory, watching portfolio exhibitions.
Students began class with interjections practice, using mad lib stories that their classmates had written. Then, they continued Oceania myth research. From there, students had a chance to read an excellent myth from last year and look at the myth to see how it met the standards. ALL RESEARCH NOTECARDS AND COMPLETE KWL AND "DESCRIBE A CHARACTER" PACKET ARE DUE TOMORROW AT THE START OF CLASS.
Homework: Read and record. Complete all research.
7th: Today we began class with some mechanics practice and then did a mechanics activity in table groups where each table group taught the class about proper usage of one of these things: commas, semi-colons, colons, quotation marks and dashes. Then, we spent the rest of the class period working on the 2 big things on our agenda right now- mechanics practice work and Middle East research! Remember- Middle East research is due tomorrow. You should come with all notecards done, KWL filled in and then be ready to properly cite your sources using the bibliography formatting that Miss D will provide.
Homework: Read and work on research!
