It was a short week, but we've been working hard!
In English the students have been learning how to properly write dialogue--one of the requirements for their stories that they will be writing. They also looked around for titles of things that should be underlined or typed in italics as well as titles of things that would be in quotations.
During Literature, we have been continuing to read The Westing Game. We are focusing pretty heavily on character traits. The major assignment throughout the unit is the character web packet. For each character in the book, the students must find character traits and then give two reasons why they display that trait.
In religion we are continuing to follow St. Paul's journey. He is now beginning his third missionary journey in our studies. Please remember to be on the lookout for large pieces of cardboard for the assessment project!
I hope you all have a wonderful long weekend and a Happy Halloween! After a day of professional development on Thursday, we will be heading up to Peninsula State Park for our last camping trip of the year. It looks like God is coming through for us and taking some of the rain out of the forecast! : )
