Last week, students finished Part 2 of Fahrenheit 451 "The Sieve and the Sand." Their analytical skills are taking off, especially when they analyzed Matthew Arnold's "Dover Beach" lyric poem that mirrors the Fahrenheit 451 society and collaborated together on a myriad of stations.
This week, students will take a site writing assessment. This assessment will allow students to "show what they know" and practice the argumentative essay in a testing situation prior to the SBAC. Students should feel well prepared for this assessment as they have all the tools to excel and I know they will do a fabulous job. Next week, English teachers will get together and score these essays, so stay tuned!
