Writing Lesson (Maroon Day):
1. Classes are shortened today because of STEM activities and Stations of the Cross. 2. We will continue working on the Argumentative Essay over public libraries. If you are working from home, please read Sources A, B, C. Highlight and annotate the sources as you find information to help you determine your position on the prompt. Take notes in the Source Chart or on your own loose leaf. You may also take notes in a Google Doc. 3. Check the blog post on Monday, March 1, for an example of the Source Chart with notes collected during class. You may then check your chart against the notes from class and make any changes. 4. Also, please keep working on your essay over the novel Tunes for Bears to Dance To. This will be due on Wednesday, March 3, by the end of your class period. Comments are closed.

Help my memory, that I may remember what I learn and recall it when necessary. Guide me in the classroom.
