Scribe 3/19

Today's class began with SSR the way it normally does. Afterward we continued to work on learning the difference between informal and formal writing. We went around the class hearing everyone's chosen paragraphs and then the informal/ formal versions of them. We did not finish. We had our usual lit circle discussion. Don't forget to do disc prep 7

  • SSR
  •  Academic tone

Better late than never...

Sorry for the late blog post but we don't have English until Tuesday anyway.

  • SSR
  • Book Talk
  • Chose books
We ended our second Lit Cirlce books and now we're moving onto Non-Fiction. Mrs. Ortega chose 6 (7?) great books that we had the options to choose. After having the summaries explained to us, she drew sticks and formed new Lit Circle groups. Also, we have to review someone's Literary Analysis paper and print out the review someone gave to you. Our first discussion will be on Wednesday!
