Students read chapters 18-19 of The Giver. We compared parts of the film with the book as we read. We had a discussion of the connotation and the denotation of release and Elsewhere in the our book. We also discussed how these words were used as euphemisms in the book. Students reviewed figurative language definitions and examples for their reading comprehension test. Today in class . . .

Students took the state end-of-level writing test. They wrote two essays. We will have results soon. I will share them with students in class. Today in class . . . We reviewed for our end-of-level writing test. Students analyzed their scores from their mid-level test in February. I promised students that I would send the email included below. This email includes an optional review assignment and documents we have used to help us write essays all year. Here is the email: Hi Parents, Guardians, And Students: This email is just to remind you about our end-of-level writing test next week. I am excited for this test! We have worked hard this year, and every student has made great progress in their essay-writing skills. Because we are on an A/B schedule, students in 1st 3rd 5th and 7th period classes will test on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Students in 2nd 4th and 6th period classes will test on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. They will only be testing during their English class; please make every effort to be in class. Please review, or help your student review by looking over the documents I have attached to this email. They are also available on my website: http://englishwithmsnorr.weebly.com/ The documents are these:
Also, It would benefit all students to make sure that they get enough sleep and breakfast before testing each day. Additionally, here is the link to practice test if you want to look at it too: http://sageportal.org/training-tests/ Thanks, Ms. Norr SOJH English Dept.
