Section 1 should make sure they do the Choosing the Right Word for unit 4 vocab.
Sections 2 & 3 have pictionaries and Choosing for unit 5 tonight, but I will give them some extra time.
Sections 2 & 3 should bring in a revision of their essay Wednesday. We will focus on punctuation. The final draft is due Thursday.
The Treasure of Lemon Brown can be found on the Holt site (here). The story is located in unit 2.
