We did bellwork. The Quote of the week was "Don't worry about failures, worry about the chances you miss when you don't even try." -Jack Canfield We read the arguments on pg. 24-25 of SCOPE magazine and completed a scavenger hunt looking for claim, counterclaim, rebuttal, and evidence. We practiced writing a claim, counterclaim, and rebuttal for the topic "Does listening to a book count just as much as listening to one?" Then we filled out half of the paper for comparing the book and the movie of The Giver. Tues. Dec. 6 We watched The Giver and filled out the other side of the paper that compares the two. Wed. Dec. 7 We learned about Pronouns, and took notes on them. We did the worksheet on Subject Pronouns. We also did prewriting for the Giver Essay. Thurs. Dec. 8 We took notes on objects, then did a worksheet on object pronouns. We also did another worksheet identifying pronouns and whether they were object pronouns or subject pronouns. We then finished the outlines for the Giver Argumentative paper and started typing the essay. Fri. Dec. 9 We learned about anteceedents, and possesive pronouns, then did a worksheet for both of those. We looked at all of the missing work for the quarter. ALL MISSING WORK is DUE DECEMBER 16! We finished typing the Giver Argumentative essay. |
