Thursday 10-16-15

Today we have our reading writing retreat in the library. This is a wonderful opportunity provided by Mrs. Babbitt. We spend 45 minutes in silence in the beautiful library. We can write or read. That's it. No research, no games, no talking. At the end of the period we share out what we did. It's awesome.

Homework today including work due Friday (we have some time in class to work.)

LA
second draft with REAL REVISIONS. Ms. Lamb will grade the revision by looking at the first draft and the second draft. She expects to see a clear story arc, the heart of the story emphasized and slowed down, a new beginning and several exploded moments.  Be ready to conference at the beginning of class on Friday.

8 great sentences for word study (1st and 2nd sorts should be done)

Read your novel if you have time. You should have completed 3 novels by now (200 plus pages each, not graphic novels - they count but you need to read more than just that.) Everyone is EXPECTED to read 2 hours outside of class per week. I check with parents at conferences.
