1.) Prayer
2.) We wrote the Lord of the Flies "Quest" on chapter 9-12
3.) We were given three handouts. Transitions and Connective phrases, Traffic Light Self-Assesment, and Lord of the Flies-Intensely Important Quotes.
We were to work on the Intensely Important Quotes in class after the quest.
Thanks Kathleen!
Note from Ms. Meakes: you weren't supposed to get the "Traffic Light Self-Assessment" or "Transitions and Connective Phrases" handouts until Monday. Please bring them to class so I can explain them. Please bring "Intensely Important Quotes" as well so we can review the answers together.
