The "I Pledge, I Will" Spring 2013 Non-Fiction Exhibition is tomorrow.
Please be prepared, you will demonstrate your new knowledge in two ways:
  • Written component
  • Artistic component
Remember - Good readers share their knowledge and can explain why the information they read is useful to themselves and others. Now that you have read "I Pledge" books, it's time to share your learning with others.

REMINDER!

Please remember, we will have our end of book test on Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry  - tomorrow, Weds, June 5th. It will be a Day 1. A class is first. The test will encompass - short answer, matching and identifying specific quotes throughout the novel. You will tell me (a.) who said it (b) to whom it was said (c) what does it mean? Here is an example:
"I sure wouldn't want that big ole man stayin at my place... I betcha he get mad one time, he take ole Little Man and swing him over that tree yonder like he wasn't  nothing but a twig."

Also, many of you were absent recently. Some students still need to submit their essay, vomit & outline. If this is you, please submit A.S.A.P.
