- We went over the words for this week's Vocab 8 quiz on Friday. The powerpoint for Vocab 8 can be found under "Vocabulary & Handouts"
- Students have completed the novel and project for this unit. This week we will be focused on Argumentative Writing.
- Students will create an anchor chart for their notebooks titled "Parts of a Powerful Argument"
- Students will complete stations focused on different skills to improve their writing. The station groups were determined based on performance on the last writing assignment, so students will be able to focus on activities that are geared toward their specific needs.
- Students will be given the argumentative writing prompt, and begin planning for their essay based on the guided packet.
- Students will write the essay in class, and turn in a typed draft to their Google Drive folders. This is a summative assessment, and will be worth 100 points.
