We have started our first oral novel study on Ruth Minsky-Sender's The Cage.  Students are encouraged to discuss what we are reading at home by asking questions and making connections/predictions about our book.   

Students have chosen their favorite genre of poetry to work with and completed a final poem for our poetry/lyric unit.  They are to find a way to artistically represent their poems for our showcase on Wednesday, May 18th.  This will happen first period (8:35 - 9:25) in the common room.  Classes, parents, staff and administration are welcome to view our Poetry Pavilion.
