January 28- February 1

As we approach Milestones testing, students will take timed, online formative and summative assignments. Hopefully, students will utilize the same close reading strategies that we have practiced using paper/pencil in the electronic format. Remember, all 7th graders will take the Milestone tests online.

This week, we will focus on the following:

Reading Selections

Tangerine and corresponding matchbook summaries

Skills and Strategies

Argumentative Texts, analyzing and composing claims and counterclaims

Timed Writing: Argumentative

Constructed Response: Tangerine

Grammar Review

Due Dates

+ ReadTheory- all classes Wednesday (technically Tuesday at midnight)

+ One Pager- 2/26

Reminders

+ Meet in the 7th Grade Computer Lab on Wednesday

+ Bring earbuds to use with school-provided technology (computers and iPads)

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. :-)
