English
(Ripp) | Please start searching for books to bring them back. We are moving into our actual debates where we will be debating the roles of fairytale creatures and whether they were in the right or wrong. It has been lovely to hear scholars more and see them find success. Deadlines: Questions to ask: What is a circular reasoning What is a red herring fallacy? How did you do on the logical fallacy test? Who do you hope to be debate partners with? Do you have any of Mrs. Ripp’s books that need to go back?

English
(Gunst) | We are working on two units simultaneously: a unit focusing on literary analysis using picture books and short stories. Your students are learning how to analyze and write about literature. A second unit is focused on debate and critical thinking. This unit is mostly occurring in the classroom and is a nice way to finish off the year by getting students talking and interacting with each other.
Please work with your students to have them finish out the year strong. |
