3/22/2021 0 Comments Monday, 3/22/21Today should be my last day at home. I'm looking forward to my return tomorrow, but I'm still feeling rather weak. Please be sure to complete the coach book assignment posted in Canvas for today.
Also, be sure you've completed last week's readings and work associated with the following two texts:
The paired reading assignment from Thursday may be taken multiple times, and I will count the highest score. Doing well on it requires careful reading and analysis. Take your time, and be sure to read and reread the text and questions. Read the two passages and answer the questions. When you click to begin, you will see both passages and questions. Take your time and go back to the text. You can take the quiz more than one time. The highest score will be counted.
Be sure you've completed all assignments thoroughly for this week. There WILL be an assessment over the story "The Bet" and the paired article next week. 3/14/2021 0 Comments "The Bet" Week of 3/15/21Monday, 3/15/21 LT: I can identify and analyze important elements of a story.
