This I Believe Writing Day! - 27 January and 28 January 2020

Today's Goal:
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.6.3
Write narratives to develop real or imagined experiences or events using effective technique, relevant descriptive details, and well-structured event sequences.

The Plan:

1. Read
2. "Being Content with Myself" by Kamaal Majeed
3. Writing Time!
4. "Singing Badly, and Loudly" by Megan
5. More Writing Time!
6. "America's Beauty is in it's Diversity" by Alaa El-Saad

Reminders/Homework:

• Read!
• Finish your This I Believe Essay! (By finish, I mean write it all. I do not mean make it perfect. We still have work to do, but you have to write it all out first.)
• NoRedInk Diagnostic #3
• Due Friday, 30 January, 4pm
• It is a diagnostic, so you won't know the answers. You will not be penalized for wrong answers. Just try. This is the pretest so we can see the growth!
• As of RIGHT NOW, Ms. Black will not give you full credit No Red Ink Assignments completed late. You will get partial credit, but if it is not done by 4pm on Friday, you will not get full points.

There is nothing else to report today. You have many tools at your disposal on Google Classroom and in previous blog posts and in your Writing Stations. Today is dedicated to writing. You will not get another full day dedicated to writing, so please use it.
