Lesson 119

Students were reminded that, by the end of the weekend, they should have completed the first two packages (most should be done already).

We read Chapter 5 up to the end of page 77 - "Nothing Gold Can Stay"

We did some metaphor/simile work on their latest package for Chapter 5/6 - Students should have the first two pages done (to the end of personal simile/metaphor writing) and ensure that they are appropriate for school. 

The remainder of the block was given over to group work. 

Groups should consider connecting in some form over the weekend to ensure they are ready to refine and practice on Tuesday. 

Have a wonderful weekend! 

 

Lesson 118

 Students had some time to work on their package questions, including the notes on page 12 (related to yesterday's conversation). 

We read the remainder of Chapter 4, after which students had a bit more time to work on their questions. 

Students had the remainder of the block to work on their "Breaking News" segments.
