I have posted one final practice EOC test for you to practice before Tuesday. Check the answer key, and whatever you miss use the links here to brush up on those skills. We will have one more class practice before TUESDAY May 9th.
Also, if you have missed any days of our novel reading, be sure that you are listening to it aloud on line (see the link) you must also complete the daily graphic organizers so that you will be well prepared for our final essay of freshman year. Get the notes from a trusted friend.
