English 10: Blocks 1/2

Here's a re-cap of what we did this week:

Tuesday: we played a review game with the questions put together by students; we then read "All Summer in a Day" by Ray Bradbury. Students then had to complete journal entries based off two characters in the story, representing the differing points of view of the characters.

Wednesday: Ms. Cancilla visited our class and did a lesson on First People storytelling and traditional oral narratives. We started off with a talking circle, and then students split into groups of three to share their own stories; each group had to take turns with their roles as the observer, the storyteller, and the recorder.

We also had a final test on our short story unit.

Reminders:
  • "All Summer in a Day" assignments: overdue
