Hello,
 
Students are working on writing their personal narratives. Students have been drafting, editing, revising, and now are writing their final drafts.  I have posted a review of videos that explain the expectations of a personal narrative.  
 
In reading, we have started reading the book Hatchet by Gary Paulson. We will be exploring the elements of fiction, figurative language, and general analysis of a the novel as they read.
