6th and 8th grade writing (Scott) for the week of 11.26.12

OVERVIEW: We have started a new unit this week putting together two skills we have been working on in both social studies and writing: creating a thesis or topic sentence and supporting with details.  The new literary essay unit will be concentrating on reading a story, creating a thesis and then pulling details to support our thesis.

HOMEWORK: Students will read and take notes on The Marble Champ.  Students will also need to correct Conventions Tests 1 and 2 to earn extra points and improve test scores.

QUIZ/TEST: see homework
