This has been a great week for our middle school students!

5th and 6th Grade: This week we finished reading Walk Two Moons!  The students loved the story and learned a lot about character traits, figurative language and genre. In spelling we continue to work in Wordly Wise.

7th and 8th Grade: Our middle school students are working hard on finishing up Charles Dickens David Copperfield. We have spent a lot of time working on theme, irony and allusion. In literature circles students continue to develop their own inferential questions and lead discussions without the help of the teachers. They are working to understand authors craft and symbolism.
