I would like you to make sure you find a good book and read for 30 minutes tonight.  This will help you prepare for our upcoming book talks!

Please make sure you have your jot notes done for your personal narrative.

Please have your history test signed by your parent/guardian.

Also, ensure you respond to the following 3 questions from "The Nest"...

ÊMake sure you have recorded 3 connections you made while reading the text.  What type of connection were they?
ÊWhat judgment or opinion did you make about a character or event?  Support your judgment or opinion with connections to your background knowledge or experience.
ÊExplain how making connections helps the reader understand what is read.

  1. Hey Ms.Whitenect,

    I don't fully understand how to do a personal narrative.

    Could you help me??

    Thanks!

  2. Hi Lauren, take one of your text to self connections and just jot down some points about the story that reminds you of something that happened in the story. For example, if you related to a character in the story, and it reminded you of a time in your life... Share that story with me by jotting down the sequence of events!
    Hope that helps... If not, come in for 2nd nutrition break and I can explain it further!
    Thanks for the comment and your effort!! :)
