*Please note: Because these are such extraordinary times, and we want to reduce any stress you may be feeling in regards to this online model, we are easing up on required assignments. We will now have color-coded assignments, focusing primarily on math, reading and writing. Everything in red on the blog is now optional, and will not be assessed . Many of these assignments your student can do independently, so they are still recommended, but not required.

Composition:
We will be writing three KWO on Monday. We are going to write a KWO for two different source texted and then we are going to learn how to combine those two KWO into one KWO. From the combined KWO we will write the RD and FD. Since this is a combined paper, I will be keeping the papers once they are graded.
The easiest way would be to have your child type up their IEW paper. Have them highlight the dress-ups. Then email it to me. This way I can grade the paper and you can see any corrections. OR you can have your child write the paper and email a picture of it to me. I can then grade it but with this I will not be able to write any corrections for you to see.
All final drafts have to be written in cursive.
