Hello Students,

Last week, we watched the movie The Giver. Now, it's time to use the film to apply various skills and standards learned over the course of American Literature. On Monday, April 20 starting at 10:00AM, we will cover the first standard, W3, which is narrative writing. Although we covered this skill earlier this month, there are still some areas of concern. 

Therefore, your teachers have crafted a thorough lesson to show you how to effectively complete your weekly task and answer a narrative prompt.

4A Narrative Writing Assignment

Below, you will find the schedule for tentative lesson to complete the assignment. We encourage you to attend all sessions to ensure you get as much support and clarity as possible to ace the task.
