Tuesday


Most days here in Room 17 include a weather report and forecast for the next several days as part of our current events discussion. While we haven't had much snow in our "neck of the woods" other parts of the country are still digging their ways out of the white stuff. Snow makes a good topic for stories and essays and gives a chance to work on good endings for our writing. We've worked on strong beginnings and middles with lots of detail and examples, and now it's time to learn how to make stronger endings for essays and stories. We'll look at some good examples of good endings as we finish the oral presentations of the Family History Reports, some of which contain excellent finishes. Nice work!
