September 16-book report and lit group information

Hello!

This week our class starting reading, The Giver,  our literature book.  The students will be assigned approximately 40 pages every 2 days or so.  Our first assignment will be due on Thursday.  They will need to fill out the page in their packet as they are reading.  Our pre-reading discussion was wonderful, ask your child about it!

The students have also chosen a fiction book to read for the quarter.  The only requirements are that they have not read the book before and that the book is not a movie or TV show.  As of today, the students have not received the requirements for the project yet, but I will post them on here as soon as they do.  The project will be due the 8th of October.  A good goal would be to finish the book by October 3 so your child could work on the project over the weekend.

I have asked the students to study their vocabulary words from the past 4 weeks each night.  They will have a test writing meaningful sentences over 10 of the 40 words next week.  They could also study their grammar packets as we will be tested over grammar as well as the comprehension and vocabulary for unit 1 next week.

I have Synergy updated right now, please check to make sure your child has all of their work turned in.  They are aware of their missing work as I gave them missing work slips today.

Thanks for all your support!
