10/19 ELA Homework

Students received a set of questions to help them prepare for our quiz on Monday. This is a paper they will be allowed to use when taking the quiz, so please encourage them to take the time to answer the questions and find evidence for their answers so that they are best prepared for the quiz. If your child was absent today, I am posting the questions below so they can still write the answers on another piece of paper. Thank you!

2.    What life-changing phenomenon does Jonas finally experience for the first time?

3.    Describe what interesting thing happens between Jonas and Gabriel.
