0 Comments
Below are copies of the handouts for the "Book-in-a-Bag Presentations" that will be the focus of our independent novel studies. Students and parents are reminded that although some time will be given over the next three Fridays to read the novels, the assignment will likely need to be completed entirely at home.
Grade 7 English - Book in a Bag Handout Grade 7 English Book in a Bag Scoring Guide Students are reminded that they must select a book to be read during Friday classes during January. (I have books in the classroom for students who cannot find one of their own.) There will be an assignment to be completed based on the book (to be handed out in the coming days.) Students who are unable to get their book finished during class time will be expected to finish it at home.
For both classes, Day 1 of the Torn Away test will feature objective questions (multiple choice, true-or-false, fill-in-the-blank, and name-the-speaker; Day 2 will be a multi-paragraph response on questions we have dealt with in class. Students will not have access to books or notes during the test, so study is essential. Watch this space for further study material

Grade 7 Essay Test Review Students in 7-2 / 7-3 who receive accommodations are reminded to stay in communication with the teacher regarding what they need to do / bring on test days (such as the one upcoming on Oct. 12-13). Learning to be advocates for themselves is vital as students advance through their school years! (Parents, of course, should still feel free to contact me with any questions at all regarding their child's progress.)
