Students received their Personal Narrative #4 essay.  If the score was D or F, student must rewrite.  The higher of the two grades will be accepted.  If a student scored A,B, or C, then it was the students decision to rewrite.   Many student resubmitted.  A few did not.  The narrative will still be accepted after Thanksgiving break.

In class, the students have been demonstrating their creative and collaborative skill.  We are doing a jigsaw of several chapters from the Shabanu book.  The group decides how to present their chapter.  The choices are reading the chapter, acting out the chapter, pantomining, or slide show.   This activity is not graded to give the students a chance to practice.  Future similar activities may be graded.

No additional homework is being given for the Thanksgiving week.

May your family discover the blessings in your life during this holiday!
