Monday

Today students continued to work on their Civil Rights persuasive piece. I am seeing a bit more confidence in students who are drafting the body of their works. I think these works will be impressive when they are finished.

I returned the unit 6 spelling and vocabulary tests today. I am happy to report that scores were well above the unit 5 test scores. We had quite a few conversations about the importance of studying the word lists and exposing yourself to those words as often as possible.

Tomorrow we will continue drafting; we will also focus on our lead paragraphs.

Have a good evening, everyone!

Fondly,
Mrs. V~
