Students have been working on some spelling and convention (grammar) exercises lately but this week we began the short story unit. All students received their definitions for the unit and we read through and highlighted the important information. 

Students will have a test on these terms Thursday, October 1.

Students also set up their journals and began their first journal which is on the handout of the first story, "On the Sidewalk Bleeding."

I have uploaded the terms and the first story for the unit with the first journal entry. If you missed this information, please get it ASAP.
