2/4 Friday's Annoucements!

TGIF Everyone!

Hope you all feel confident about your in class essays. The reason we only allow two class periods to work on these is for practice for your ELA. That is a timed test, and you need to learn how to manage your time! It's almost as important as getting your thoughts down. If you take too much time, how will you properly answer the question and complete the task?

Next week we will start our research papers, and in keeping with the theme of courage, I want you to brainstorm some courageous people in your life. Think about the courage your character displayed in your independent reading novels. Does any one in your life have that same type of courage? WHat makes them courageous and how do they show it in real life?

Have a great weekend everyone!
