This week Language Arts students will be given some class time to read their self-selected narrative novels. They will also use their reading skills to analyze their novels (summary, annotations, context clues, and theme). We will also study writing craft and how author’s build suspense, which will help them begin the planning process for their suspenseful narrative.
