**Writing**
We started our last informative paper this week – ask anything. The students are researching a question of their choosing. We’ve been doing some preliminary research and coming up with sub questions to push our research along. Next week, we will learn about searching and citing and will begin our research. We need technology! If your student has a tablet or laptop they can bring in for writing, we’d love that.
I am available for study hall/make-up work in my classroom on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings (8:05-8:30). Send your student to me instead of the gym if there’s missing work to be completed or if help is needed on classwork 🙂 If your student would like to come in another day/time, please let me know and I would be happy to make myself available.
