Book Fair and Writing

Get all your talking done at the book fair because as
soon as we get back, you're going to work. Independently.

Today's Goal: Write at least one section of your article that incorporates evidence from your research.

The Plan:

1. BOOK FAIR!
2. MODEL ARTICLE
3. Writing Time - I have left you comments on EVERY SINGLE Writing Document. Please read those comments carefully. They are important.

Reminders/Homework:

• WRITE AT LEAST ONE SECTION. You need to come to class tomorrow with some paragraphs already written. Blank documents are not going to get you support that you need. If you want to make your writing better, you have to write something to make better! We'll be doing a bit of revision work on Tuesday to give you some pointers to make your writing better. If you don't have anything written, you won't be able to participate.
• NO THOUGHT QUESTION. I want you to focus your energy on the current writing task and on getting great scores on your achieve articles.
• Two Achieve Articles due by midnight FRIDAY.
• one article of your choice.
• One article of Ms. Black's choice. 
• Title: "Keeping Watch: A Good Thing?"
• Independent Reading: at least two books completed by November 27 (that's like 20 pages every night)
• Independent Reading book projects are due November 30
• You can find the instructions on Google Classroom or if you CLICK HERE.
