Literacy Lab

Welcome Back


Hi I am glad you are here this quarter. Literacy means to understand what you read. You will write in our Blog everyday for bellwork.

Remember everyone can read what you wrote so it must be school appropriate.
Be creative with your vocabulary. You cannot use the word sleep

What was the best part of coming back to school? What is the worse part of returning to school?
