This past week, students were able to finish up their Ancient Civilization presentations. They also had a chance to show their grammar skills in a 'Boss Battle' that focused on Subject-Verb Agreement and Classifying Sentence Structures. In addition, they completed a test on Unit 1-4 Vocabulary.
Next week is a shorter week, but we still have just as much learning to do! We will be focusing on presentation skills, root words, appositive phrases, and paraphrasing on Tuesday.

We will being reading the novel after focusing on some background knowledge needed.
