Class Notes – September 30, 2013

Good afternoon, one and all!  Our students will begin work on a personal narrative writing piece in their ILA or PAP ILA classes this week.  We’ll follow the steps of pre-writing, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing.  During this writing time, we will continue to read our novels.  Some times I will ask them to read at home; other times, I will ask them to read during class.  Please check your student’s agenda and the lesson plans on the Home Access Center (HAC) to keep up with the reading assignments. Thanks in advance for your support.  Tomorrow, they will definitely need notebook paper as we get started.  Ask them to tell you what I wear for writing time.  Take care, and God bless.
