Grade 7E LA: We read "Blogger From Iraq" today and made connections, reviewed inferencing and worked on "synthesizing" information.  Assignment: Students are to complete a brief summary of what this article was about.  We reviewed the author's purpose and students need to explain in main points only.

7G and 7B Health:  Completed presentations last week, moving on today to the various forms of "Harassment".  Pages 80 to 84 in our student books.  Questions to follow.
7FLA: Writing rubric handed out.  Students must complete a persuasive piece based on the topic that I gave them. However, students were also given the freedom to choose their own topic if they see me first for approval. I just want to ensure that they are chosing a topic that will make for a strong, persuasive piece.
Thank you!
Mrs. Thain
