Students completed their chapter 20-23 questions and began work on the final project, a choice of three responses to the theme and plot of the the story.
We read and continued our work on chapters 20-23. Students visited the library as our last trip before books are returned June 12th. We reviewed our AR goals and discussed strategies for completing these goals by the 12th.

We reviewed chapters 9-12 and read chapter 13 together. Students continued work on their personal response questions for the novel study.
We read and responded to chapters 9-13 of our novel study The Giver. Students received a tracking page and booklet to support the remaining portion of the novel study.
We discussed the responses to chapters 1-5 of The Giver and continued our reading to the middle of chapter 7. Students will read to the end of chapter 9 on Monday before continuing with their response questions.
We presented our one act plays today. These were very entertaining. Congratulations to all my actors and actresses. It takes courage to present in front of peers. Everyone was successful in meeting this challenge. Well done.
While the grade 9s finished their PAT exams, my grade 8 Language Arts classes continued reading chapters 3-5 in The Giver and began responding to the questions related to these chapters.
