Another awesome week enjoyed by Pod 2!  This past week in English, many tasks were accomplished including our first test.  We were able to start Journal Quest Tuesday and what a time for writing, being creative, and sharing our thoughts.  I thank each of you who opened up and shared one of your journal entries Friday.  Keep your eye on the prize . . . 100 and a Coke.  What are your thoughts concerning our Journal Quest experience?  This weekend I’ll be grading your first DLR test.  I know I’ll see lots of 100s!  If you’re registered for TeacherEase, these grades will be posted soon.  I’ll also be reading and grading all the writing you’ve turned in this week . . . A Paragraph Is Like A __________ and City or Country – Which Do You Prefer and Why?  These assignments will be graded as classwork/homework grades. 

In the week ahead, we’ll continue with our study of nouns, conventions (one of the writing traits), and discussing our very first project.  Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend!
