Day 23: Memoir Reflection, Wordskills

Our agenda:

  1. Passbacks. Students received graded homework. Any student wishing to take home grades can check out their homework folder.
  2. Memoir Reflection. Students reflected on the process of writing their memoir by answering these questions. If you were absent, please download the worksheet and answer questions 1-8.
  3. WordSkills. We got through almost all of the 25 word parts in the first unit of our vocabulary study.

HW: None for tomorrow. WordSkills Unit 1 test will be on Monday 10/5. All students are welcome to attend before-school review sessions on Friday 10/2 and Monday 10/5 at 8:00 a.m. Students will receive 1-2 points of extra credit for attending. Students can also earn 1 point for having full vocabulary notes and 2 points for making flashcards. (That’s a total of 5 possible points! Almost a whole letter grade!)

This week we will begin preparations to read Homer’s The Odyssey, which I am very excited about.
