February 8 Journal

I am glad you are here! Today work in Study Island for 30 minutes. As of today, the 7th grade is in the lead, followed by the 8th grade, and 6th grade. I have the four remaining candidates for President of the US out in the hallway. Today, take a star and place it by the candidate you want to see as our next President. I will be doing 10 minutes of direct instsruction following Study Island. I am going to go over how to use the tutors, editor, and writer's models. You should be working on your second submission.

  1. Imagine that you and your family are on a campingtrip in a remote wilderness area when most of your gear falls over a cliff. You are left with only a pocket knife and a canteen of water. Explain what you would do to survive for four days.

  2. Would you rather go white-water rafting or skiing? Explain.
