Week of March 22nd

Posted on Mar 21, 2021

Hello Spring!  It has officially arrived and the warmer weather is really being appreciated by all. This week in reading we will finish up our story called "Mississippi Solo" by working on dictionary skills and verb tenses. We will have our test on Tuesday, 3/23.  Also on Tuesday, 3/23 our Formal Book Analysis is due!!!  No exceptions...the students can, of course, hand theirs in early:)  Our next story is called "The Drought" which is a special kind of poem called a sonnet.  Sonnets are 14 line poems originally started by William Shakespeare.  So of course we will try out our skills writing one for ourselves.  We need to keep our eyes on our school work which is hard with Spring Break looming around the corner...but we can do this together.  Have a good week!
