Objective:  I can show my understanding of grammatical elements, so I know what I need to work on to improve as a writer.
Agenda:
  • Entry Task:  Pick up the Retakeable Grammar Test Answer Sheet. Sit where you can take a test--do not sit next to someone.  You need to have space around you, or you will be asked to move.  The only way to get a 0 on the test is to cheat.
  • Make sure your name is on your answer sheet while the tests are handed out to you.
    • Complete the test to the best of your ability.  You should not know all of the answers to this--it is a pre-test, but it will be scored.  
    • As explained, you will have the opportunity to retake this test, but I need to know where you are first to know what to teach you.  
  • Take your time and be thorough, making sure to answer on the answer sheet.
    • If you finish before the bell, you can quietly study the vocabulary packet or make them into notecards.  You will take a pretest on these on Friday.
  • Exit Task:  Stop where you are and turn in both the answer sheet and the test to the teacher.

Agenda:
  • Entry Task:  Take a walk to look at our plot summary of “There Will Come Soft Rains;” complete your group work self-assessment, comparing your completed work to the other groups.  Turn in.

  • Read the summary for Station 11 and complete the Quickwrite in your notebook

  • We will also work to improve our vocabulary by playing and testing from vocabulary.com using words from the novel and some of the other readings we have done.
