Homework and class work:
This week, all classes are getting into reading their novels. We are doing a lot of reading in class and students have been given some time to work on assignments that accompany their reading in class as well.
7th grade is reading Touching Spirit Bear. Their homework is to work on the "What would you do?" assignment that is a short reading passage with 4 open ended questions. This is due on Friday.
8th grade is reading Mockingbird. Homework is to answer all comprehension questions, and fill out the Mockingbird booklet for chapters 1-6. This is due Friday.
As always, if students have any questions or concerns about homework or any other assignment, they may address them with me during class time, Tiger Time study hall, or if necessary, before school or after school.
