English 8: Blocks 3/4

For the first portion of class, students worked on a vocabulary crossword and completed a final test on The Outsiders.

After the break, students took notes on capital letters, and we went to the library to retrieve The Giver novels. After that, as an introduction to our next novel, The Giver, students were split into groups and had to brainstorm traits and rules of a Utopian society. We read Chapter 1 of The Giver and started to complete corresponding questions. Please complete these questions for homework.

Reminders:

• The Giver Chapter 1 questions: due Friday, April 17, 2015
