Choice Unit Kick-Off

Today we completed an A-Z taxonomy on the effects of war. Then I discussed assignments for the choice unit and students got into book groups to plan their reading schedule.

If you were absent, you should complete an A-Z taxonomy on "The Effects of War" in your notebook. Also, see the choice unit documents on Edline. You will need to get a copy of your book and a bookmark from me.

HOMEWORK: Read the assigned pages from your choice reading book.

Framing Friday

On Friday students came in having read, "All the King's Horses," by Vonnegut. We completed two sheets in class, one on satire and one on the story itself. If you were absent, you can find these sheets on Edline.
