Standard 10-15-2013

IMC for the Book Fair tomorrow.  Bring your money if you want to buy something.  I also want you picking out a book of your choice for Friday reads.

Then comes the big quiz.  It's a Tool Time quiz over the assortment of information that we have covered during our Tool Time activities this year.  Semi-colons and commas, conjunctive adverbs and regular adverbs, figurative language and literal language, euphemisms and symbolisms, similes and metaphors.  The list could go on but you get the idea.  It's open note but it is timed.  You need to know the material or at least know where to find the material quickly in your note books in order to be successful.  I'm making up the quiz tonight.  You should be reviewing your notes tonight.

We more than likely won't discuss The Giver tomorrow; at least, we won't discuss anything new tomorrow.  We might ask a couple of questions from the recent readings.  For Thursday you need to have finished the book.  That's 27 pages and four chapters.  Pace yourself.  Spread out the work so it's not overwhelming.

Just realized we have one more thing that we need to do this week before Friday.  We need to organize our information for next week's student led conference.  That's going to take us about a half an hour.  We might try to do it tomorrow.  If not we'll have to complete it on Thursday.  Packed couple days.

See you soon.
