7th Grade Computer Lab

Good morning!
This week in the computer lab, you will be starting to type your personal narrative (this is not your final copy-yet). While you are typing, I will be meeting with you about your papers. Here's what you are to accomplish:

1) type your paper
2) make any necessary corrections/additions
3) When you are done, have a classmate read over your paper and give feedback. (They cannot make the corrections for you, but they are to tell you what you need to correct)
4) If you finish and you are waiting to meet with Miss Brant, then you can...

• a) go to Vocabularyworkshop.com and review your vocab words
• b) Take this L:inking Verb quiz...http://www.quia.com/quiz/653873.html
• c) Play this Grammar game...http://www.grammaropolis.com/games.php

Please stay on task :-)
