Students in grade 7 and 8 are completing CASI Reading Assessments this week. These assessments are diagnostic only so will not impact SAS grades.
All students are reminded of the two hour at home reading requirement to build fluency, stamina and increase word choice.
Grade 8:
Next steps: Giving and receiving instructions will be a Foundational Learning Outcome for grade 8. Start thinking about a task that you feel comfortable with and feel capable of explaining how to do. See our Language and Writing books for suggestions too.
Grade 7: Next steps we will be reading and responding to literal questions in text and working on our sentence structure. As you are reading, use a sticky note to jot down a sentence that catches your attention. Why did you like it? Was it powerful? Surprising? Nice supporting details? Funny?
If you find a sentence that you love...let me know! I am always looking for nice quotes too.:)
