7&7/8D Language Arts May 19-22

Posted: May 18, 2020

This week’s focus question is: How do people decide what is right and wrong?  Think about this and create a list of what you believe is the goal of education?  Then, keep your list it in mind as you complete each of your daily tasks. If you find information that relates to your list or question, remember to include the following:

·       the idea or thought that sparked your interest

·       where you found it

Please find your daily task breakdown below. I will monitor your guided reading results and offer feedback where necessary.  Remember the Read Aloud option is available for all articles posted. If you have questions, email me:  paula.davidson@nbed.nb.ca
