English I students went over linking verbs and phrasal verbs before working on the paragraph for their model selection for our last short story analytic writing assignment. (Complete notes below.)

English 8 students began their new unit on the novel Nightjohn. We’ll be using two-sided, It-Says/I-Say journals for this, and today I modeled it a little for students before gradually releasing it to the kids to do one on their own.

After a bit of work in each class, we headed to the fall bookfair in the library.
