Reading and Writing
The next part of the
biography project due is the comparison and contrast essay. We are working on
the steps to complete this essay, and students are being given time to write their
essays in class. I am asking that students have the rough draft of this essay
completed by Thursday March 5th, because we will be going to the
computer lab to type their essays on this day. The due date for final copy has
been postponed to Tuesday, March 10th.
We are also currently reading a
non-fiction novel, Bomb, The Race to
Build and Steal the World’s Most Dangerous Weapon, in class together.
This book is full of the true stories of spies and espionage during the World
War II era in our country. Exciting reading!
