Tonight's homework...
1.) Decide how you will "log" your 20+ minute daily reading habit. Will you use the template Mrs. Smith gave in class? Or will you use Microsoft Word or Excel to design your our log? Remember: All Mrs. Smith needs to see is...
  • Number of reading minutes completed (20+ minimum)
  • Title of what reading material
  • A brief note explaining what you learned in the reading session, any new, useful knowledge you discovered about writing, our world or yourself as a reader that is worth sharing.
2.) Begin browsing online and at the library for your SIX "I Pledge..." titles. Remember: you must choose THREE non-fiction titles and THREE fiction titles. Follow all directions on the "I Pledge..." handout issued today. Your "I Pledge..." is due on 9/19.

3.) Word Attack: Pre- Post-     Quiz Monday

4.) What was the goal of today's "The House" reading activity?
