Congratulations, Dakota!

Persuasive Paragraph due tomorrow:  I think most are finished with this in class, but a review of what the assignment looks like is this.

1. top bun:  opening sentence that states what your child is trying to persuade me to do (Mrs, Mitchell, I think .....)
2. first reason:  beginning with a transition, state the first reason you give for me doing what you are requesting (First of all, .....)
3. second reason:  ( Secondly, ....   or Next, ...)
4. third reason:  ( Finally, ....   or,  In conclusion, ......)
5. bottom bun:  restate your persuading statement (For these reasons,  I think....)

No Saxon homework tonight. Spiral math/ calendar  (please look over both of these sides to see that you agree with your child's answers.  We went over several of the correct answers, but that doesn't always mean everyone was focused.)
