District Reading Assessment and Memoir Ideas

1. Reading Assessment

• Today we need to take a quick reading assessment. I will give you instructions in class. 
• If you have earbuds or headphones you should use them for the test. 
• If you need to borrow some we have extras. 

2. Reading

• When you finish your test you should read your book. 
• When everyone is done we will talk about memoirs. 

3. Writing memoirs

• Tomorrow you'll start a draft of your memoir in class.
• Your homework is to review your ideas and find one you want to focus on. 
• Remember your memoir is about ONE event. 
• Let me show you some examples. 

Reminders: 

• Think about what you want to write your memoir about. Spend some time thinking about the small details of that event. 
• Keep reading.
