LA:
This week in LA, we have been writing paragraphs about our puzzle piece. This project allowed students to represent themselves symbolically. It was great to learn more about each student this way. We also got back to working on Language Power - lesson 1 & 2 - grammar for everyone! 

Next week we will be working on LP lessons 3 & 4. We will also be writing our BOOKFLIX reviews to share with the whole school. This mean that all the students need to have a book, which they have read, in mind for the project. 
Power-Up:

Students need to create a 1-pager, about useful study techniques. The 1-pager will be colorful and detailed, in order to be useful when studying.
