English 8: Blocks 7/8

Silent reading and notes on 'adverbs'.

To continue with our assignment, the Letter to Ms. Jones,  I paired up students for a peer-edit. I also gave a bit of time to work on the good copy of the letter. The assignment is due Thursday, Feb. 26, 2015.

We finished discussing the short story "Catch" and completed corresponding questions. We ended the day with notes on elements of short stories (types of conflict and point of view).

Reminders:
  • "Catch" questions: due Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2015
  • Letter to Ms. Jones (plan, rough copy, peer edit, and good copy): due Thursday, Feb. 26, 2015
