Hi Friends!
Good work today! Most of you are progressing nicely and wrapping up those essays! You're also well underway with the Influential Figure representations. Well done. Most of us made it out of class safely without any glue gun burns... ;)
To recap, today we went over how to properly embed quotations into our writing. Remember, we are aiming for fluidity in our writing and don't want to see anything "floating" where it shouldn't be. Focus on those transition words and remember the sandwich - claim, quote, explanation.
*Please reference the slides from the lesson (posted in each class' Google Share folder) as an anchor/resource.
Also, Pi Day is on Friday. Yum. Let's try and be environmentally conscious and remember to bring in a reusable (camping, plastic...) plate and fork. You can wash everything up at the sink afterwards, but we'd really like to eliminate the amount of waste, which is why we're asking.
Thats all for now! The countdown is on until Spring Break!!
