5PA Update

This week, students will continue working on their literary essays.  Students have learned how to write a strong thesis statement and cite evidence from the text.  During the upcoming week, learners will review how to explain their evidence and will be encouraged to include elaborative details.  Again, I will model the process for students so that they are confident about their abilities when required to work independently. The essays should be completed by Wednesday.  If students are unable to complete it in class, they will be assigned homework.  Towards the end of the week, students will be introduced to a new literary piece entitled "The Great Blackberry Pick".
