On Monday, all students will attend an assembly in celebration of Red Ribbon Week. The assembly will focus on the topics prevalent to teenagers such as dangers of alcohol consumption, drug use and bullying. The students will view a documentary of real life stories told by teenagers whose lives have been affected by these issues.
In language arts class, the 8th grade students will begin writing a character sketch. All students will learn the focus of a character sketch, the format, how to write a thesis statement and transitional sentences. Instruction is a "step by step" process that covers a different aspect of the essay each day. In reading class we will continue reading Monster.
