Question
Students, please grade a student workbook from the back bookcase. You need to open the book to pages 592-599 and answer the following questions on this Google Doc as you read. There are a few paper copies for those without a chrome book, but I prefer that you answer these questions on a Google doc if possible. If you finish early, please work in the vocabulary app, read silently, or complete work for another class.
