What is your favorite book now and why?

My favorite book is called Eleventh Birthdays, because it's about a girl my age and I can relate to her.

Biome Reserach Report

Students are now independent in their abilities to finish writing their research report on the biome they have been studying.  They will be heading home today 4/29 with everything they need to finish publishing their report.  They will have the first few paragraphs typed and saved on their jump drives, they will have written directions that go over all the skills I have taught in class  (how to write and introduction, how to write the body of the report and how to write a conclusion).   They will also have a example of an at standard  biome report on a  biomeI made up. They will be finishing the report for homework this next week.  The final report is due Monday May 9th.   

We are on the Oregon Trail
