HEY 7th GRADE GATORS!!!

I know that the change to O.C.L. (off campus learning) is going to be an adjustment period for ALL OF US so I just want you all to know that I'm here to help you all in any and every possible way that I can. The classwork attachments for your guided reading activities and vocabulary builder activities have been grouped together as one file. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT I EXPECT YOU TO COMPLETE TWELVE PAGES OF WORK EVERY MONDAY!!! You have the full week to complete my assignments at your pace and hopefully this will help keep you from being overwhelmed from all of your other classes work as well.  I have added the power-point presentation to help with some of the areas during class reading where I would normally stop and discuss a certain topic or landmark. You all know how to complete the assignments correctly. I will not be doing anything new or springing any surprises on you with any of your assignments. I Hope you all are doing well and please don't hesitate to email me if you have any questions or concerns. Miss you all!- Coach Boyd
