Don't forget to study your Latin and Greek word roots! -- TEST TODAY!
There may be no cavetime on Wednesday, May 23. Thursday, May 24 will be a request day. |
Targets for Today:
I can use symbols to share more information more effectively about a scene from a book than I could without using symbols. I can show that I know the assigned Latin word roots. |
Today’s Agenda:
1. Prepare for the test on Latin Word Roots and the SSR Presentations. 2. Test on Latin Word Roots. Write your name and period. Write your student number and bubble it in. Bubble in the answers. You may also mark on the test itself. 3. SSR Presentations in small groups (Book Project) Write your name under "Student Presenting" on one paper for each other student in your group. For each student you grade, write your name by "Student Scoring." Return the sheets you graded people on to those you graded. Each person should staple their own grades to their planning sheets, then hand in the packet to the top wire basket. When finished, read, draw, visit quietly. |
If You Were Absent:
See above.
Arrange a time to take the test and to present your SSR. |
