English 8

It was an honor to perform the Ceremony of Twelves! Thank you for your Childhood!

Silent Reading and Grammar (commas)
During class, we did a simulation of the Ceremony of Twelves from The Giver. Each student was assigned a random number, and their their job assignment was announced by our voluntary Elders. Some of the job assignments included: Doctor, Instructor of Elevens, Street Cleaner, Food Delivery Worker, ext. Students then had to write a journal response expressing how they would feel if jobs were assigned to them at a young age. Thanks for the wonderful participation! After this activity, we read Chapter 14 in our novels.

Reminders:
  • Please check to board for missing assignments!
