It has been brought to my attention that a majority of the class needs more time to work.
Since we had a snow delay and we lost some working time... Tomorrow will be a working day.

Monday will be a blue print and check list update day.... and TUESDAY will be testing day.   NO ONE WILL WORK ON THE ACTUAL HOUSES ON MONDAY. NO ONE.

BEAM kids work on blue prints and check lists and have them to me Tuesday by the end of school.

Language Arts 2/28

1) Now that we have done some peer editing, take one last look at your introductory paragraph. Use the checklist that was completed for your paragraph to make any changes/revisions/edits that are needed. We will not be looking at the introductory paragraph again!

2) Finish revising the PIE structure for each of your body paragraphs FOR MONDAY! 

Structure for each body paragraph:
1 Point Sentence (topic sentence that clearly states the reason and ties back to your thesis).
4 Illustration Sentences that DESCRIBE at least TWO examples from the play to prove your point.
4 Explanation Sentences that clearly EXPLAIN how your examples prove your point.
1 Concluding/Transition Sentence that brings the topic to a close while introducing the next reason.
