English 7 - Parents - Please make sure that your child is studying how to spell his vocabulary words each week. This is part of the quiz and the students are not doing well on this portion. Since this is the seventh grade, I do not assign "spelling practice". The children are old enough now to be responsible for doing this on their own and for learning positive study techniques. Thank you for helping your child to learn this practice.
This week we are on vocabulary lesson 17. The quiz will be on Friday. We will also finish our contest papers. The final paper is due Thursday. We will be working on learning syntax techniques. There will be vocabulary words associated with this. Your child is responsible for learning these and being able to identify examples of each.
English 8 - Vocabulary lesson 18 - quiz on Friday. We will complete the outline and begin rough drafts for our research paper this week. Please have a jump drive.
