Upstander projects and & and all-around CREATIVE day for 7B!

6th: We began class with the read aloud. Then, we shared out some fantastic book buddy letters. We spent the rest of class moving at our own pace- drafting, revising and editing our essays for the upstander project. Miss D STRONGLY suggests that students come to class with their first draft by Monday if they have not already completed it.
Homework: Make sure draft is complete by Monday!

7th:
We began class by practicing our read aloud chapters before presenting them to the class. Students practiced all of the elements of a great poetic performance that we discussed in class. We saw amazing performances! Be ready if you and your partner are presenting on Monday. We spent the last part of class really using our creative writing skills on some story prompts. We'll be diving into more creative writing in the coming weeks as we work on our anthologies.
Homework: Make sure your group is ready present the Home of the Brave Chapter- Monday and Tuesday!
