8th Grade--5/17

Today was the first of two days of combined English and social studies. As you work on your script writing, remember to work on developing "moments", using description, literary elements, strong vocabulary, and varied sentence structure. Be ready! When I walk around on Thursday, I will be asking to see at least one moment of vivid description in your script. Without this element, you will not earn my approval, which is necessary to proceed.

Those of you in the original 8B class should bring your journals to class tomorrow. We will be working on our science fiction story start, which is due on Monday.

Homework due tomorrow:
-None  

Long term due dates:
5/20--Section #5 of sci fi book group is due (question, too!) 
5/20--Collect book group question packet
5/23--Science Fiction story start is due
6/1--May IR Log due
6/1--Final Fiction Piece due
