(Ripp) | Please look for any books that may be hidden at home. If you would like donate a lost book to our class, take a look at this wishlist. We wrapped up our book clubs with a final discussion and scholars handed in their text analysis projects. It has been marvelous to see their growth and understanding of the world. We then did a flash fiction unit with an emphasis on beginnings, dialogue, and exploding the moment in regular English, and 200, 100, and 25 or 6 word stories. Next week is mostly focused on Urban Challenge.
Deadlines: Best book of the year speech slide due the 12th Flash fiction scene revised and turned inb for assessment the 13th Read 2 hours + outside of English every week 6th reading goal due the 13th

(Gunst) | After completing the Overcoming Obstacles Book Club Unit, we are turning to developing our writing skills. We will be doing a short Creative Writing Unit during which your student will develop skills such as setting the scene, dialogue, and figurative language. Students will be asked to write a 250 word story fragment daily. Ultimately, your student will pick the one to revise and turn it in as a Summative Grade.
Students are still expected to read 20 minutes per day independently outside of class. |
Geography (Stoller) | Urban Challenge continues to be our focus in Geography. We completed a Mock Urban Challenge at school and learned how to ride the Madison Metro bus includings how to use the transit app to determine route numbers and times. Next week, we continue with Urban Challenge for the first part of the week and will wrap up with more exploration of Europe.
