Great job on checking this blog regularly. We are currently reading Chapter 5 and Quarter Notes are due tomorrow. After reading Chapter 6 please answer the questions for Chapter 4-6 which were distributed today in class.
We worked with the "netbooks" today so students were able to see the variety of learning sites on Mrs. Jaggers blog. Please refer to these on a regular basis for drill and practice. PLUS....they are FUN!!!

Ready for the first test?

Don't Forget , Loser quiz tomorrow
Remember to bring in the writing prompt for The Loser tomorrow, also.
Today, we began reading I Know What You Did Last Summer by Lois Duncan. We read the first 4 or 5 pages of this novel, therefore, you need to finish reading the first Chapter for homework. Everyone received the vocabulary words and definitions for Chapters 1-3. If time allows over the weekend, take some time to study for a test next week. We will review the words next week before the test. Don't forget to return your expectation sheets and your questionnaires. Thank you, parents!

Good Job, Team 7-2
The first day of school is already behind you and your parents have homework in ELA. Please make sure they respond to the questions on the "Questionnaire" and return it signed to me by Thursday, September 3rd if possible. I enjoyed seeing younger brothers and sisters of former students and meeting many new faces. Please feel free to check the blog on a regular basis and use the resources I will include for extra support and practice. See you tomorrow!
