Thomas Literature for Wednesday, May 6th, 2020

Good morning 8th graders,

Welcome to Wednesday of Spirit Week – Get Out There and Bike Day! Grab your helmet and your wheels (or wheel, if you are partial to unicycles) and go for a spin.

Before or after your ride, whichever works best for you, you have three items for your Literature To Do list:

  • Complete the 🥳Hooray for 8th graders🥳 form (5 – 15 minutes)
  • Poetic Device Practice assignment (12 – 15 minutes)
  • Daily Reading (20 – 35 minutes)

Let’s get started!

  1. Complete the 🥳Hooray for 8th graders🥳 form (5 – 15 minutes)
    • The 6th and 7th graders want to celebrate you in style, but we need some help!
    • Please complete the form on Teams and let me know if you have questions
  2. Poetic Device Practice assignment (12 – 15 minutes)
    • We will be writing our own poetry soon, so it’s helpful to review what we know about poetry.
    • You can find some helpful review videos online and I have included one here (Feel free to turn off the sound and stop them at any point)
    • Follow the directions and contact me with any questions!
  3. Daily Reading (20 – 35 minutes)
    • Read for 15 – 30 minutes, whatever you have chosen, and practice a different analysis skill in your evidence cloumn
    • Contact me with any questions or concerns!

Have a great day!
