Today, students read independently. Absent students should get their absence excused for the bell-ringer to be exempted.

Then, students took a quick comprehension quiz over the story we read last week. It is due today.

Students began working on the Southern Gothic Evaluation in Google Classroom, a graphic organizer that will help them mentally plan for a gateway essay that is coming up. Students may choose to work with a partner or alone on the graphic organizer but the essay will still be independent.
