    1. How many people were in the "March on Washington?"

    2. What makes the March on Washington different from other demonstrations at the same location?

    3. What do the picket signs say the marchers are marching for? (List two.)

        b.

    4. What song do they sing as they march?

    5. Who was the president during the Civil Rights movement?

    Happy Halloween!
    Today we are working on Word Choice by writing about monsters. Check today's starter for more information.
    Then, we're going to read a short story I've written and transform it into a scary story by changing a few details here and there. (see the attachment for the story.)

    Today we are learning about the Word Choice trait. We had a starter, so make sure to check for that if you were absent. 
    We also started a practice assessment to prepare us for the summative assessment which will be next week. 
    There is a study guide which you can download below. (Thanks Mrs. Culletto.)
