Woohoo we got a full 80 minute class period today an you guys were awesome! We read for 10. I gave a 6 minute mini-lesson on searching smarter then you got to research.  Many of you left with at least 2 articles you could use.  You should read through those tonight (yes you can count the time on your reading logs!) The plan is to be in a spot where you can write your rough draft for the whole period on Friday. I will collect logs Friday.
