5.29 English

All grade 7 and 8 students will be working on a personal essay due June 5. This is the last writing piece of the year and is a reflective essay, that is why we have saved it to the end. Each student received a direction sheet, check list and helpful hints guide. Also on the sheet is the state web site with personal essay examples both graded and ungraded. If your son/daughter needs help, please visit the website or have them see me prior to June 3, so that they can still meet the deadline. All clinic and team times will be devoted to this work.
