Uh, oh! Teacher is absent!

That's right! I will not be here Tuesday, so here is your assignment.

1. Writer's Notebook: Continue to draft your totem pole sections.
   
2. Go to the mini-computer lab and load our Class Wiki.
   
3. Read both articles on sentence structures/patterns. Follow the directions on the wiki for each article. Complete the handout. Turn in. Why are we reviewing this again?
   
4. Then draft your post in Microsoft Word for the novel you just completed explaining how the author used the assigned term within your novel:
   Theme: Jordan, Miles, RaechelSetting: Mildren, Maisie, Kelsey
   Internal Conflict: Susie, Heather, Caitlin
   External Conflict: Shanna, Donovan
   Characterization: Cindy, Taresa, Kayla
   Run out of time? We'll finish this next time.
   
5. If completed, print your post and turn in.
   
6. 9:00: Complete the questions about your novel. Must be turned in today!
   
7. Turn in lit circle packet.
   
8. Turn in novel...unless you did not complete your post and think you might need your novel to do so.

Homework: Read this post to review other posts you need to draft.

A look at our near future:

• Posting is now just a click away!
• On Thursday, you will each receive a copy of Touching Spirit Bear.
• Totem Poles will be due next week.

Thanks!
