In LA this week you'll need to turn in your first essay of Term 3, the pairs debate, on Tues. The rest of the week will be dedicated to learning the difference between active and passive voice as well as starting your first free write of the term. As always, spelling quiz on Friday.
In Reading we will get the second vocab list of the term this week. Additionally, you need to finish part one of TKAMB by Tuesday for a short quiz and an evaluative exercise before we start part two. On Friday we will have a graded discussion up through chapter 20. The weekly online discussion question(s) will be up tomorrow.
