In Thursday's class, we talked about enriching narratives with description, and that when describing, we want to show, not tell. Students were given sentences strips that tell, and they were asked to create sentences that showed what was represented in the sentence strip. Then, they gave their sentences to a partner, and the partner attempted to guess what the original sentence was.
Literature Circles met to discuss their next chunk, and then each student wrote a reflection on how the group discussions are going. Students answered two questions about their discussions: what's working, and what's not?
Remember to read your next chunk and prepare a Page of Thoughts for Wednesday.
Also, remember your food drive donations!
