Weeks of March 5th and 12th, 2018

March 12th week...Metro Schools 3rd Practice Opinion Essay Writing Benchmark this Wed. Students will be given 2 1/2 hours to read a text article, organize their positions(evidence), and write a 5-6 paragraph essay. Essays will be graded and scored by Head Middle Magnet teacher(s).

Students will also be practicing test taking strategies with a practice test later in the week.

**************************************************************************
Students will be writing an opinion essay on peaceful protests during the Civil Rights Era, using two texts for evidence. Our next Metro School's Practice Benchmark Writing Essay will be an opinion essay. Students are following a template that provides step by step modeling of successful essay writing.

We are also about to begin our next classroom novel on Steve Jobs. More to come.

Please ask your student to show you their daily Edmodo posted assignment each Monday through Thursday. Please monitor and confirm that they are keeping up with their practice work as TNREADY Spring tests are just around the corner.

Lastly, please ask your student to keep focused at school and make good choices regarding their behavior. My goal as teacher is to provide a safe learning environment for all.
