Week of 10/19/15

The students will have a test on "My Papa, Mark Twain" and "Stage Fright" on Monday, October 19th.  We will be reviewing our comprehension skills from the first unit on Tuesday.  They are plot (exposition, conflict, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution), author's perspective and tone.  They will have a test on these skills on Wednesday, October 21st.  On Friday, October 16th, the students received a list of PSSA terms.  They will have a test on these terms and author's point of view on Friday, October 23rd.  We will be reviewing both of these things all week.  Please make sure your child studies the PSSA terms.  This can be an easy 100 if they study.  If they don't study, it could turn out to be a bad grade.  There are only 20 terms. 

The book fair will be held this week.  My homeroom will go to the book fair on Wednesday.  Parents can shop at the book fair on Monday from 4 - 7.

Have a great week!!!
