Week of April 23rd

Happy Spring and welcome back from a long break.  So, with Spring time in Middle School, lots of behavior problems seem to start springing up.  Please remind your student to come to school ready to learn, ready to stay on task, and not to encourage poor peer behavior when it happens.  Thanks!

ELA:  This is our second week with our new argument writing task:  Should Public School Students Wear Uniforms?
We will be finishing up this topic on Friday.  Lessons this week on the topic will include a socratic seminar, clock partners, graphic organizers, so what statements, the quote sandwich,  revisiting goals, and editing with a purpose

Social Studies:  Finish up Egypt!  Self Inquiry Centers, Finish KWL Charts, Finish Novel: Moses in Egypt, Maybe watch the Movie...

Thanks, Mr Franey (mfraney@ttusd.org)
