Students were advised to focus on the specific methods and devices the songwriter used to express his/her meaning. Thursday: 1. Students continued with the lyrics analysis project. By next class, have steps 1-4 from the assignment sheet completed.
9/2/17 - 9/6/1710/6/2017 Students and Parents, This week, we covered the following: Tuesday: 1. We began class with a quickwrite. 2. Students shared their news article assignments with each other and then turned them in. 3. Lastly, students began working on an illustration to accompany the final draft of their personal narratives.

A collage of images related to the events of your narrative Wednesday: 1. Students continued working on the illustrations for their narratives. Thursday: 1.
