February 21 Journal

Hi. Today work in Study Island for 30 minutes and then I am going to discuss your new prompt. I am going to talk to you about midterm grades as well and schedule your times to present your persuasives.


  1. Imagine that you are the captain of your own ship. where would you sail to? Who would travel with you? Explain.

  2. Pretend that you have just received from a friend a letter that has been lost in the maili for a month. Write about your letter's month-long adventure.
