It’s been a lot of fun teaching 8th grade seminar. We have just a handful of classes remaining with our final class on Thursday, May 11th. There is a LOT due by the end of class on Monday, May 1st. Here’s a list:
- our literary analysis — we’ll be in the library so students can have access to the printer. Students should turn in the rubric, their planning document, and their final essay.
- Reading PSR — this should be printed out in their portfolio along with their updated reading plan/book log. I will sign off once I’ve made sure that the reflection has followed the assignment guidelines.
- Semester self-evaluation (Rubric). Due through Google Classroom.
- Students should have identified a new book that they are reading. Students should still be meeting the CHOICE reading requirement.
- Any school copies of To Kill A Mockingbird should be returned with annotations removed.
Starting Tuesday, we’ll work on three more small projects to wrap up the year.
If we have time, we may do some “career-planning” and/or grammar skits as well — we’ll see how time unfolds. Thanks so much for all your support! -JF
