Today in class, we learned how to do a double entry journal. This is a helpful way to keep track of what you are reading. We also went over the rules for writing grammatically correct dialogue.

If you are an eighth grader, for homework:

-finish all of your classwork. This means a double entry journal for "The Yolk's on Me," and a written dialogue.

-pick a story (a fairytale, a nes article, a magazine piece, a short story or poem, or a few pages of a longer book) and summarize it. Then do a double entry journal for the story you chose.

If you are a seventh grader, for homework:

-finish your dialogue for "The Yolk's on Me"
-Read the first chapter of the "Brother's in Arms" and do a double entry journal for the chapter
