Students moved into groups to share their theme statements from last class - they compared and critiqued them, then each group wrote a statement on the board.
We checked to see if the statements followed all the rules, avoided 1st person, and captured the core theme of the story...
Students received a new story- "The Veldt" - and should ensure they have read up to - AND ONLY UP TO - the top of page 122, where the children say: "Hello, Mom. Hello, Dad."
Other than the reading (only for BLK 8, as we are frequently interrupted by off-task behaviour) there is no homework for the long weekend!!!
