- Class started with two quizzes. The students took a grammar quiz on clauses and sentence structure.
- After the grammar quiz, they took a quiz on the short story "All Summer in a Day."
- While the students took their quizzes, I check homework and homework cards. The notes on "All Summer in a Day" were due.
- After the students completed both quizzes, they had two options:
- 1. they could read/review the assigned short story for their group project.
- 2. or they could work on organizing their portfolio.
- We then corrected both quizzes as a class. We used this as an opportunity to review the grammar concepts and the plot details of the short story "All Summer in a Day".
- I then took the students through a power point presentation to review the "All Summer in a Day" notes.
- The students then had the last 30 minutes of class to work with the group for their short story presentation.
- Homework: Study vocabulary & spelling #15 & 16; bring your OR Book; Read "A Pair of Silk Stockings"; work on your presentation
