This week in Language Arts we are continuing to work on short poems, writing personal memoirs (over the long weekend), and reviewing basic literary terms, grammar and reading skills.
Next week students will use the computer netbooks in class to revise and type pieces of their work for the Memoir Project. (Information about that project is under handouts to the right of this blog.)
PLEASE review the online grades with your student. The essay and class project should be graded shortly, however other activities have been entered.
