Today we began our class with our warm-up journals, writing down as many verbs and adjectives we could think of in English.

We then wrote many on the board,  looked for multiple synonyms for each of the words, and wrote phrases using the verbs and adjectives we examined.

Next, we took our quiz on chapters 1-3 of Holes. I collected the quizzes, and we used the remaining time to work on our “I Am From” poems before handing them in at the end of the period.

 

This Thursday: hand-in your summer work

This Friday: reread chapters 4-9 of Holes

Next Tuesday: Hand in your “Forgotten Promise” story.
