A Busy Week Ahead!

During Language Arts this week the students will have both Monday and Tuesday to write a rough draft of their outline for their career speech. We discussed the rubric for the outline and shared some key points for this process. On Wednesday and Thursday (early dismissal) the students will be in the IMC typing the final copy of their outline which will be used to present their career speeches next week. Students should bring a flash drive on Wednesday! It will also be important to print out the final copy of their bibliography (5 to 8 sources needed) and work on the visual for their speech.

The students will be working in groups to read Chapter 11 & 12 in Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie during Reading. Vocabulary for both chapters will be due on Tuesday. The students, within their groups, will be responsible for reading the chapters and completing the comprehension questions which will be discussed and collected during the last part of class on Wednesday. We will not have reading on Thursday due in part to early dismissal and we will be using the time to finish our career outlines.

If you have any questions please contact me at kfroats@ccsd66.org

Have a wonderful week!
