The 8th graders have just finished Chapter 6 in The Outsiders. They have done a wonderful job working in their literature circles and participating in meaningful conversations about Ponyboy and the Greasers. We will be finishing the book prior to Christmas break. The students will take a comprehensive test December 16, and they will complete an extension project of their choice by Dec. 22. The 8th graders have a vocabulary test this Friday, December 3rd over their 2nd word list. A comprehensive test over all 40 words will be the week of December 13th.
In Grammar, the 8th graders will be reviewing the parts of speech to start off the 2nd trimester. The students will take control of teaching a part of speech to the class.
Thank you and enjoy your weekend!
