READING: This week we're learning about figurative language. We're looking at metaphorical poems, idioms, and many others. There will be a quiz next Thursday (2/16) over the material. Some terms to keep in mind are:
idiom
figurative vs. literal
metaphor
simile
hyperbole
understatement
ENGLISH: Great job on debates last week! Students are working on fun poems that we're going to submit to the Portland Seadogs for a contest. The topic should be their favorite ball park food or summer memory.
