read the entire Hunger Games trilogy and the Lost Hero. Even in the summer, they pushed us to publish insightful blog posts and encouraged us to think beyond the book. The summer after fifth grade contributed greatly to my critical thinking and metacognition. They always made it clear that their students were welcome to visit, even when we were in sixth grade. They were both so…

Using a recent example, looking at SLO A helped realize the rhetorical situation and audience. This allowed me to keep in…
