Scribe for Wednesday 10/3, Second Rotation!

What's up guys! It's Joe again.

As with most ordinary days in Mrs. Ortega's class, we started off with some good 'ol SSR. Afterwards, Ortega reminded us to let her know when we've finished a book, and to not be afraid to let her know during SSR. (Let's get this house point!) Mrs. Ortega also reminded us of the four-core rotation tomorrow; so make sure you read and prepare your questions!

We then pulled our notebooks out, and wrote in assignment #18, "Progress Reports", where we are to tape our progress reports in. After this, we flipped to our peer review pages, and peer reviewed Cris' writing workshop piece, which proved to be a pretty humorous anecdote about his experiences with swimming.

After a few of us shared out about Cris' piece, we begun to work on our own workshop pieces, which we did for the remainder of class. As we worked, Mrs. Ortega came around and checked our notebooks to make sure they were all up to date. She didn't get to everyone, so if she hasn't checked yours yet, make sure yours is complete! She then quickly passed out all of our progress reports, and class was over!


Important things to remember / Homework:
  • We have four-core rotation tomorrow, so make sure you read your LC books, and prepare 4-8 open-ended-ish questions for discussions!
  • Make sure you let Mrs. Ortega know if you've finished a book, so we can win a house point!
  • Work on your writing workshop pieces continuously, and have somewhat of a first draft to submit for peer review by next Wednesday.
