Welcome

I have been practicing blogging for one week and finally inviting parents to visit my blog. To read the true welcome and introduction please scroll down and read last Monday's post. I passed out notices to all students inviting the parents to visit my blog. I am asking for a signature, not obligating you to visit the blog, but only sign that you know about it. I have parents who are great about communicating by email; feel free to c0ntact me by email anytime!

8th Language Arts:

Students are studying how novels are similar to movies. Tomorrow they will be analyzing three characaters in the movie, "October Sky," for heroic traits.

Today they worked in Literature circles. Students are working in groups of their choice or doing individual reading of a novel. You might want to ask them what they are reading.
