Weekly Agenda 3/10-3/14

Weekly Agenda 3/10-3/14

FCAT Reading will be on Tuesday. FCAT Math will be on Wednesday.

Monday
Honors: Today we will review the Thematic Connections Journal for TKAM. This project will be your 9 weeks assessment grade. We will substitute the multiple choice test for a project this quarter due to FCAT testing being so soon before the end of the 9 weeks. You should have read through chapter 17 by now. Read chapters 18-20 by Friday.

Standard: Today we will review the Thematic Connections Journal for TKAM. This project will be your 9 weeks assessment grade. We will substitute the multiple choice test for a project this quarter due to FCAT testing being so soon before the end of the 9 weeks. We will also finish reading for chapter 9 and begin chapter 10.

You will receive your Mystery Notebook number and your partner's number. DO NOT LOSE YOUR NUMBER. Remember to write responses to your partner ONLY in your assigned book. Responses should ONLY relate to the entry prompt and the reading. NO NON-ACADEMIC WRITING SHOULD END UP IN THE MYSTERY NOTEBOOK. Remember that the Mystery Notebook is a MYSTERY. Don't reveal your identity until the Reveal Day Ceremony.

Tuesday
Today is FCAT Reading. You will go directly to your testing location and stay there until the end of testing. Then you will report to either lunch or your 5th period class (depending on the location of your 5th period class). Remember 5th and 6th period are regular class days. We will be reading and working on the Thematic Connections Journal.

Thursday
There will be NO First or Second period today. Go directly to your 3rd period class. Both 3rd and 4th period will be two hours long. Plan to read and discuss the novel, and continue working on your Thematic Connections Journal. Remember that 5th and 6th period are regular class days. We will continue reading the novel today.

Friday
Honors: You will conduct literature circles on chapters 17-20 today. Read through chapter 23 by Monday.

Standard: We will continue reading and working on the Mystery Notebooks today. You should have read up to chapter 14 by the end of class today.

Reminder: The To Kill a Mockingbird packet will be due when we finish reading the book. We will periodically correct the worksheets in the packet as we get closer to finishing the novel. The Thematic Connections Journal is IN PLACE of your 9 weeks exam. It is a major grade and should be treated as such. Standard: The Mystery Notebook will continue until we finish the novel. Keep up on the reading so you don't get piled on near the end!
