8th Grade Literacy Connections has begun reading The Giver by Lois Lowry. Students will be given a quiz every 2 chapters. The quiz will cover comprehension and vocabulary. Most work will be completed in class, however, if a student does not complete work in class, it will be homework! So far, the students are really enjoying this book!
6th grade Literacy Connections is starting a Unit on Number The Stars! Students will begin reading this week. If students do not finish work in class, they will be expected to finish it for homework. A comprehension and vocabulary quiz will be given every 3 chapters! Making flashcards are always helpful!
