March is here and I get to spend 80 minutes with you on this warm yet rainy day. We will begin by chasing the gray away and sticking our noses in our IR books for 15 wonderful minutes.
Next: Working in pairs, students will choose the theme of Power or Friendship. (Theme of Power and Friendship sheets) They will use the same characters, but vary the plot events to depict subtle differences in theme. (25 mins).
Finally: To demonstrate their plot events, students will act out their themes and elicit guesses from the opposite group. (30 mins)
HW:
- LIST TWO NEW BOOKS IN YOUR "TO READ" section--WWII is the topic!
- Read 20 minutes and keep post its -if you haven't presented-you will on Thursday
- Spreadsheet to crowdsource WW II BOOKS
