Rossiter/Werber - ELA - 01/6/2017

What We Did Today
Read The Hour of the Bees and looked for motivations and problems to help us better understand the themes within the book. The students also did the same in their own independent reading novels. Mrs. Rossiter's classes worked on typing their theme based essays and Mrs. Werber's classes worked on grammar-commas.

Homework
Mrs. Rossiter: If you need to, continue to work on typing your essay at home.  All rough drafts are due Tuesday, January 10th.  We will revise Wednesday -Thursday, and the essays are due Friday, January 13th, turned in to Google Classroom.

Mrs. Werber: Read and continue adding to your "Motivation/Problem - Lesson (Theme)" T-chart.


Discussion Starters
What theme are you writing about in your essay?  What evidence do you have from your book to support your claim?
What rules did you learn about commas today?
