If you have not shown your PowerPoint, or if you would like to add points to what you have earned on your PowerPoint -- have it ready on the 15th -- the last day of class for our rotation.   Make sure you have included citations -- not just URL's  on your bibliography slide.  (Use bibme.org to create your citations using the URL of each site.  Remember to copy the URL from the page where you found the information, then click on the tab for websites before you enter the URL.)

Finish poem fluency presentations.

Write about the experience of completing your celebrity webquest.

Extra Credit:  Be the first to come tell me the meaning of the word Penultimate. See the information below.

Brian P. Cleary The word PENULTIMATE means “the next to last.” If someone refers to the penultimate scene in the play, it’s the one before the final. The word “vacation,” for instance, has its accent on the penultimate syllable.

Lemony Snicket wrote a book called The Penultimate Peril, so it is about the next to the last peril.
