Work for Thursday, 3/26 - Friday, 3/27: For Friday: Please submit the requested work to my Google Classroom. Please keep everything else that you did over these two weeks so that we can review when we return from Spring Break. Do not throw things away-- I may end up grading them when we come back. For Thursday RPS work, please do #1-5 in "Vocabulary Strategies: Using Latin Prefixes" on page 69 of your Collections book. Please do these on the same sheet of paper on which you did page 52 last Thursday. You only need to write the "Re" word and what it means. Anne Frank House website and extra credit: Please spend a few minutes checking out the Anne Frank House website. It is really interesting and worth your time. Here is the link: I have attached to the bottom of the page the webquest that we usually do in class.

Make sure you finish your Anne Frank essay. 3. begin reading excerpts from the actual diary written by Anne Frank (Collections book). 4. begin reading The War Within Our Hearts. 5. work on IXL. I will post additional assignments later in the week. Work for Thursday, 3/19: For your weekly RPS practice, please do page 52 in your Collections book, "Vocabulary Strategies: Using Greek Prefixes." Just follow the directions. You are basically writing the word and what you think it means, based on your knowledge of the prefix "tele." Write your answers on a sheet of paper. You can use the same sheet of paper for next week's RPS. Otherwise, work on Anne Frank essay. Make sure it is completed by the end of next week. Please do the grammar work for tomorrow on Monday.

sheet (looks just like the stuff we do on Tues. and Wed. as bell
ringers) this week and the other side for Week 2. The same goes for the Analogies worksheet-- do the front this week, the back next week.
