8^th Grade Language Arts, Literature, Latin: April 21-25

We have completed the i-stem in Latin, and now we will go on to study the fourth declension nouns formation. In literature we have Emancipation and Brown vs. Board of Education.  It is an example of persuasive techniques.  The students will then write their own persuasive essays.  There will be a test on our literature chapter Thursday and a quiz on the new Latin nouns on Friday.

These plans are subject to change according to students’ needs
