Lit Studies Update 10-5-09
Hello 8A Parents,
In Literature Studies we have been working on recognizing conflict and the type of conflicts that can be in literature. We have also been looking at chronological (time) and ordered sequence in literature. We have learned some of the key words to look for as well as the way to express what we find.
We are heading into October which is a great time of year for some spooky, unusual stories. We will be reading "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe as well as some other short stories.
Ask you students to retell the stories to you (a great recall skill needed to become good readers.)
