Congratulations to students for surviving the two writing tests we have worked hard to prepare for all year! I was so proud of students as they took the tests. They really wrote their hearts out and rose to the occasion! The District Writing Assessment results take about a month and a half to get back to students and the State Writing Test will factor into students' CST Language Arts scores for this year.
Next up is World Read Aloud Day...March 6th! There will be 20 minutes of reading aloud during 4th period tomorrow and in our Language Arts classes. The Year of the Reader at HMS continues!!
Finally, Accelerated Reader Trimester 3 goals are being made this week. Please leave a comment below with the book you are currently reading and what you like about it in 2-3 sentences. Be sure to leave your last name so that you'll get credit for the assignment.
I'm currently reading Cloud Atlas. I saw the movie, so it made me want to read the book. The book and movie are both confusing, but really intriguing because the story spans from the 1800's to the future, post-apocalyptic. I wouldn't recommend this book to the average 7th grader, but maybe when you are a senior in high school or older...
