Hi there!

Reminder: eLearning is due this Friday! Assignments will not be accepted late, and the grade for Snow Day 1 will be put in the this (second) grading period. If you typed on googledocs, please print it out and pass it in.

Today we continued discussing and practicing finding them in excerpts of our novel, and then citing the evidence to support theme. Students also analyzed specific parts of text and connected them to nonfiction articles. Students are starting to learn the skill of comparing/contrasting fiction and nonfiction with related topics, and they will extend this to writing.

**If there is a snow day, please continue with your next assigned chapter(s) of reading. This applies to all classes, except accelerated; you should be finished with your novel.
