This week Peak continues his climb, and we complete the verb unit. Many of you have asked whether there will be a project associated with Peak. The answer is "Sort-of." On Day 3 of this week, you will be creating Prayer Flags while we discuss the novel. Please note the poll on the side of the blog. Vote for whether you want the Peak test to be in class or take-home. If the test is in class, there will be no other projects with this unit. If the test is take-home, you will have a creative piece that allows for you to create another project in addition to the test questions.
-------Please be honest and vote only once.
