This week will be devoted to finishing To Kill A Mockingbird chapter discussions and the continuation of diagramming...with the addition of indirect objects and compound sentences.
Although we might not get to discuss the final chapters of the novel on the dates scheduled on the reading schedule, ALL STUDENTS should have the book completed by Thursday, February 6th. The date for the test will be announced at the end of the week.
Also, this week will be slightly modified because the 7th grade will be going on a "field trip" on Monday. Therefore, there will be no regular classes on that day. We will NOT have a vocabulary unit because of that. Also, I will not be in class, on Thursday, Feb. 6th because I am accompanying our Spelling Bee winners (Aidan Kramer and Brett Satisky) to the district Spelling Bee at the Cottage School, in Roswell. Students will use that class time to catch up on any reading for To Kill A Mockingbird.
Monday: 7th Grade field trip to various religious facilities throughout the Atlanta area. This is, always, one of my favorite trips. It allows the students to see and experience the different religions in the Atlanta area and compare them with Judaism.
Tuesday: (Blocks 2, 3 and 5) We will go over the chapters (up to, and including, Chapters 25 , 26 and 27). We will, also, continue with diagramming practice...with the introduction of indirect objects and compound sentences.
Wednesday: (Block 2 and 3) continue with Chapters 28. We will use this class to "catch up" on any chapters we have not covered. Review of diagramming of sentences. Students will come up to the board for some competition. (Block 6) Same as Tuesday's schedule.
Thursday: I will not be in class, today (Mrs. Cheryl Willis will be the "sub."). ALL students will use this time to "catch up" on any reading of To Kill a Mockingbird. REMEMBER: ALL STUDENTS SHOULD HAVE THE BOOK COMPLETED BY TODAY, FEBRUARY 6TH. Any chapters that we have not covered, will be addressed in the coming days. The date for the test will be announced on Friday.
Friday: We will use today as a review and "catch up" day for any chapters not discussed. Also, there will be a contest on diagramming, where the class will be divided into 2 teams to compete for some "homemade goodies".

Plans For January 13 -27, 2020
This week will be devoted to Vocabulary Unit # 12 ( pages 148-155), continuation of To Kill a Mockingbird practicing diagramming sentences. As scheduled, the students are going over the novel, chapter by chapter, in class. The test date will be determined as we move closer to the completion of the book. The diagramming of sentences will continue to become more and more involved, as we increase the lengths of the sentences and include more parts of the sentences to identify. The students know to participate and, always, ask questions when they feel they do not clearly understand what has been discussed in class. It is imperative that the students advocate for themselves and stay on task, both with the To Kill a Mockingbird and the diagramming of sentences.
Monday: Vocabulary # 12 ( pages 148 -155) First 10 minutes. What ever is not completed in class, will be completed for homework.Continue with the scheduled chapter discussion of TKAM. If, for some reason, we are not able to get to the scheduled chapters for a specific class, then, we will continue where we left off from the previous class period. Any diagramming will take place towards the end of each class (if time), to ensure the understanding of the different parts of the sentence and where they are located in the actual diagram. There will be much "board work" during this.
Tuesday: (Blocks 2, 3 and 5) Go over the vocabulary homework (pages 148 -155). Continue with TKAM and diagramming of sentences.
Wednesday: (Blocks 2 and 3) Review vocabulary for Unit 12 quiz on Friday. Continue with TKAM and diagramming of sentences. (Block 6) Same as Tuesday.
Thursday: (Blocks 5 and 6) Same as Wednesday.
