7th grade ELA Novel Projects:
One of my favorite activities each year is sharing my love of literature with students. Students choose their own independent novel at a range of levels and then share their novel with their peers during presentation of a project of their choosing. These projects included minecraft 3D scenes, movie posters, slide show presentations, scrapbooks, graphic novel creations, and so much more! The students definitely "cooked" showing off their skills and I'm hoping they found enjoyment in reading! Here are a few highlights from this week. Mrs. Rusho 7th Grade ELA
Bruce Campos - 2017 EWA Alumni - came to speak to Mrs. Warren's Accounting 1 and 2 class this morning. He is an auditor with Price Waterhouse Cooper and brother to Accounting student Jordan Fuentes. He did an awesome job!
