Lesson plans for November 2nd-6th

Reminders:  Parent/Teacher conferences are next week November 10th and 12th from 4-8. Junior high winter sports start practice this week. Our high school volleyball team will be playing in the regional final on Tuesday at Clarksville at 7:00 p.m. Come support your Green Devils!

English 7: Monday- we did not get time for our figurative language notes last week so we will kick off this week with that. Students will have a quiz over the material on Friday
                 Tuesday- students will be making a poster depicting an example of figurative language. This will help us study for our quiz. Students will use design software on their computers to create an eye-catching, informative poster.
                Wednesday- students will take a practice test over figurative language and have time to finish up their posters
                Thursday- we will present student creations and review a variety of grammar topics on No Red Ink
                Friday- students will take their quiz over figurative language and have a blogging activity

English 8: Monday- students have two new assignments in No Red Ink over components of a sentence and identifying sentences and fragments. Exercises will be due on Thursday before we take the quiz. Students will also be working on a short story storyboard where they depict the main parts of the story in a sequence of pictures with dialogue.
                Tuesday- work day on No Red Ink and storyboards
                Wednesday- students will present storyboards and continue working on No Red Ink practice exercises
                Thursday- students will have two quizzes to take today in No Red Ink
                Friday- students will have a writing prompt to complete using our Write to Learn assessment tool.

Lesson plans are subject to change and please contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns. Let's have another great week of learning!
