September 28

We went to the computer lab to finish the memoirs.
Some students finished up their Wonderful Words.

We talked about rubrics, and worked with a rubric for "whining." The students were superb whiners -- lots of practice, I guess. We even had one who enhanced his whining performance with a "lying-on-the-floor-and-kicking-his-legs-tantrum."

The purpose of using a rubric for whining was to show how we can improve our WRITING by using a rubric.

Some students shared their memoirs, too.

Those students whose parents were not at the parent teacher conference received progress reports to have signed by their parents and returned to Ms. Dorsey by October 5.
