I will admit, yesterday I was wondering if our class would be able to get itself back on track for PSSA writing essays... Well the proved me wrong and came back with a VENGEANCE today.  Wow am I impressed with how they followed the writing process and gave it their all.  One more day tomorrow!  FINISH STRONG DUDES AND DUDETTES!

In the afternoon we began reading about a woman named Molly Pitcher and how she helped soldiers during the Revolutionary War.  The skill of infer/predict/conclusions/generalizations is our focus for this unit.  Small groups will be reading about revolutionary spies, the unsung hero Joseph Warren, and the spread of smallpox during the American Revolution.

Again, more more day of PSSA!  Show your growth.  Prove to yourself and the state of PA what you know!
