Announcements
On this page you will find updates, announcements, and additional resources from Mrs. D'Amico's 7th grade classroom.
Today in class, students read a new mentor text, "The Cluster of Queens." This reading kicked off our new Narrative Writing Unit, where students are going to write a short story based on life lessons they have learned so far.
I was very impressed with the depth of discussion that students generated based on their reading, as well as the annotations they made in response to the text. For homework tonight, students should complete their Brainstorm List: 10 Most Important Lessons Learned Students will use this list in class to kick off their writing, so it is important that they come with at least 10 ideas. Parents: I encourage you to discuss this list with your child, and discuss some of the life lessons you hope your child has learned so far. Some of the ideas students generated in class today:
I look forward to working with these topics tomorrow! Best, Mrs. D'Amico
