Weekly Update 1/18-1/22

J15 is probably getting ready to step out onto the ice to serenade the packed arena of roughly 10,000 fans for the Providence Bruins game!  I wish I were there to see you all perform!

We had a short, albeit busy week.  Students have been busily working on their opinion essays.  They are coming along quite well and I love the topic choices.  In math we have been wrapping our minds around multiplying decimal numbers.  Finally, we have begun lit circles!  Today marked the first day lit circle groups began their discussions of their books.  I heard some quality discussions happening at the two groups I sat in on today and I know we will have some great discussions for the rest of the school year.  Before we got into our groups for the first time, we established expectations as an entire class which are pictured below.

Reminder- All lit circle job worksheets are now on our google classroom drive.  If you forget to grab yours in class, please download the worksheet and print at home.
