Writing Activity (in journal)- Calendar Picture

SAT PREP- We used the chrome books to do group challenges. Students all logged on to the same vocabulary test and using the testing strategies we've previously discussed, took the same practice test. (The practice tests can be found on this web site under my SAT PREP link located in the left menu.) Students were allowed to discuss each word within their group, but they were competing against the other groups. The scores were totaled and divided by four.
