English 1

15 minutes - Students read their AR books for 15 minutes. Students need to have 5 AR points for each grading period. The next grading period ends on November 7.

25 minutes - Each week, students receive vocabulary and grammar homework that they pick up on Monday, complete throughout the week, and take a quiz for on Friday. Today we reviewed the vocabulary words and discussed prepositions as our weekly grammar unit.

Homework
Students are to have a working rough draft by tomorrow of their short stories. The rough draft must be a coherent whole and should include 2 passages of dialogue. Tomorrow we will talk about how to revise for style, and then they will work on their final drafts.

Useful Resources - Here are links to handouts needed for the Narrative Writing unit.  If you're missing one, just download it here.
