Our first Watsons test is this week!!  You should have been studying your questions and binder pages this weekend.  Remember to write in complete sentences and support all answers with text support.  Take your time and write what you know.

We'll draft our first REDEC writing assignment this week as well.  Follow your graphic organizer when setting up; don't forget to explain the quote and examples provided as support.

There is a surprise in store for you as well.  You'll have to wait until Wednesday to find out!!

***First AR quiz is due December 1st.

Keep reading!!  Reader's workshop requirements have been explained and all due dates are posted in the classroom.  Be sure to keep possible themes in mind as you read, since your project will center around theme.  You are going to need at least 4 scenes/events from the story to prove your theme.
