Weeks of Feb. 8th,16th, and 22nd

Students will be following step by step instructions in order to write a 5 paragraph Opinion Essay over the past two week's texts on Civil Rights.

Students will be reading, discussing, and writing about the Civil Rights Efforts to desegrate Nashville businesses in the early 1960's.

Students will be provided digital text copies of materials, teacher created powerpoints to guide instruction, discussions in class, and various assessment opportunities.   

Students will focus and learn:

• How to read, analyze, and write a summary and an opinion essay following a TN READY Writing type specifically designed prompts. 
• Through step by step instructions through TEAMS ELA meetings, and shared instructional materials in Schoology ELA course folders.
• Through teacher modeled expectations and provided scaffolded activities to break down the task of writing.

Always ask your student to show you rather than tell you.....their grades to find their schoology assignments and activities.

Each week......students will complete:

• A formative assignment from the ELA lesson
• A summative ELA assignment from the ELA lesson
• NO RED INK...one practice activity per week. Homework grade.
• FVL Curriculum...one practice activity per week. Homework grade.

Grades are entered by the weekend. Missing assignments are labeled with an orange wheel and a ZERO. These assignments can still be completed for full credit.
