    • Typically, there will be two parts to the quiz.

      • The first part will ask students, through multiple choice questions, to identify different characters, settings, and key events. The first part will be closed-book.

      • The second part will ask students, through short-answer responses, to identify and recall specific details throughout the specified chapter. The second part will be open-book.

This is the Vocabulary Words Student Schedule that our class will be following!

Students may use the Vocabulary Flashcards Helping Guide to help them create their flashcards for each unit.

Each week, for homework, students are asked to read for a certain amount of time each day.

Students should be reading books that are appropriate for their reading level. If students need assistance choosing the right books for them, of if they'd like me to hand-pick books for them, they may always ask me!
