Lesson Plan: Monday, Nov. 27th, 2006

Thank you for cooperating today. As you work in class, I will be finishing my "one on one" meetings with grade 8 students to review the first quarter and to give you your report cards.
In class today you will do the following things:

1. Read your "Romeo and Juliet" rough copy: You will read one more time your "Romeo and Juliet" charafcter analysis and proof it one last time. Check grammar and spelling carefully, as your grading rubric for entries this quarter will focus much more on proofreading, especially spelling, punctuation, grammar and "readability."

2. Type in your "Romeo and Juliet" entry: Open your blog site and enter your "Romeo and Juliet" character analysis.

3. SAVE, PROOF and CHECK: Be sure to save as a draft your entry, to spellcheck and grammar/punctuation check, and finally read through to check for readability.

4. VIEW BLOG: do this to make sure that you did the entry correctly.

5. Continue to read your next novel. (novel 6 this year for LA 8).
