Homework: September 7th and 8th

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to ELA!   My name is Ms. Tuck and I am excited to be working with you and your families this year!

Just a quick review:  homework is posted every night.  Please have someone from home sign the homework each night.  In most cases, I will ask for you to work with a family member or friend to complete the assignment. 

Homework: September 7th

Welcome!
For homework tonight, please interview a family member using the Sherman Alexie open letter format we used in class today.

1. What is your name?
2. What does your name mean to you?
3. What is one thing you don't believe in?  Why?
