Language Arts
* We will be working on dialogue and how it creates humor or suspense in a text.
*Students will be working of how to find dialogue, understand if it is humor or suspense, and how to write their own dialogue.
* We are continuing with creative narrative.
* We are reading above grade level, we are doing this by reading "Warrior's Don't Cry".
* We are completing the worksheet of warrior's in class, we will then review how well they followed along with the text.
* On Thursday we will be in the lab working on their writing. This is working on civil rights coming up with things they want to learn more about. They will be writing a paper on this.
* We will be having vocabulary words: Monday they will write the word and definition 3 times. One time should be in their handbook. Tuesday will be the word 10 times. Wednesday they write the word, definition and an example for each. The quiz will be Friday. This process helps with hooking the information into the long term memory.
* The following is the vocabulary words for the week.
Write the word and the definition 3 times. One set should be in your handbook. The additional two should be on your vocabulary paper (if you still have the paper)
*dialogue: a conversation involving two or more persons, a conversational passage in a literary work, written conversation
*humor: something that is or has the ability to be comical or amusing
*suspense: gives the reader the "on-edge" feeling, leaving the reader hanging, trying to figure out what will happen next
