March 12th, 2018 - March 23rd, 2018
Good morning!
We hope you had a wonderful weekend and Digital Learning Day on Friday. Here is our update for the next two weeks.
Dr. Foote' and Ms. Culberson (1st, 5th, 6th Periods):
We are aware that Mastery Connect did not work for some of the students on Friday's Digital Learning Day. We will allow the students to make this up during class.
We will continue to work on text structures. The students will practice identifying text structures through the use of Quizizz and task cards.
The students will continue practicing their constructed responses using the RACE strategy (Restate the prompt, Answer the question, Cite evidence, Explain). They will also be learning how to answer informative/explanatory prompts. It is important that the students continue learning how to properly "break down" the prompt, so that they can write a response that accurately answers the prompt. This is especially important on the upcoming Georgia Milestones. We have been doing "Drop Everything and Write" days every Thursday. We will continue to do this for the next couple of weeks, focusing on narrative writing as well.
Lastly, the students will learn informational text vocabulary and prepare for their upcoming common assessment. The common assessment will be held on Wednesday, March 21st.
Ms. Culberson (3rd & 4th Periods):

The students have also been given an index card that has all of their missing assignments on it. They are responsible for making these assignments up. The students have until Friday, March 16th to get these assignments turned in.
