ELA- Mr. Jones
This week was a week of continuing with our Argument Writing Piece by completing a graphic organizer with our claim, reasons for our claim, and evidence to support our reasons and claim. We also studied how to write an effective introduction, conclusion, and a counterclaim. Next week students will have an opportunity to transfer the graphic organizer into a writing piece.

Currently, students are working on a Greek Culture Stations packet that is due next Wednesday.
