English 8

It's already May!
Today we started off with silent reading and worked on vocabulary from The Giver. We then simulated the 'Ceremony of Twelves' form The Giver; each student was assigned a number and a job based on random selection. The purpose of this was to understand the functioning of the community and the feelings of the characters in the novel. After that, students worked on questions for Chapters 8-10 in The Giver.

Reminders:
  • The Giver questions (Chpt.8-10): due Monday, May 2, 2016
  • The Giver Quiz: Monday, May 2, 2016
