Another busy busy day in English class.
We started with a new seating plan - students were really efficient about finding their seats, getting work out and ready and beginning to read their independent novels.
Reading goals for Term 1 are in the edit stage. Remember your goal must be SMART and have a solid plan for your reading this term. Today we added the novel list sheet to binders - a place to record all the reading that you do from now until Christmas.
Audience and Purpose Part 1 - who writes at work and for what purpose? We considered different jobs, what they have to write, and what the purpose of that writing is.
Portfolio Project - DUE OCT 15th. We got started today by going over specifics and getting a few visuals. You will get some more time next day to work on this.
HOMEWORK: READ!!! You should have an independent novel. Spend at least 30 minutes (in addition to ER) reading each and everyday!
