| The first three weeks of school have passed quickly! After spending the first week going from "Blah to Blast", we are now working on language arts lessons. Students have written journal entries, read short stories, taken Cornell notes over literary terms in preparation for upcoming work, and written letters of introduction. In the upcoming week, we will be learning about the author Langston Hughes and studying one of his short stories. We will also study other authors and their craft in the following weeks. |
