9/11/17
A few dates to keep in mind:
September 18th we do not have school.
September 24th is the Color Run. Please be sure to tell your friends!
September 25th will be the 8th grade's leadership retreat in Panora. Permission slips will be sent home in the next week or two.
September 29th we get out early due to the Homecoming parade.
Thank you to all of the students who helped with the Food Fair's carnival last night! We had a great turn out.
The 8th grade is in the process of reviewing the essential elements of a plot. They are currently in the process of writing a short creative story. We will move on to a few nonfiction stories before we really get started in the textbook.
The 7th grade just finished a short story by Ray Bradbury called "The Sound of Thunder". They are focusing on cause and effect, foreshadowing, and suspense.
The 6th grade is being introduced to the elements of a plot, how to diagram the elements on a plot diagram, and my writing expectations. They will be reading a memoir today by Gary Paulsen before they write their own mini memoirs tomorrow.
