We have picked up our novels from the library and completed a pre-reading activity. Students were asked to predict what the story might be about by looking at the cover of the novel. After this, students had to make up three questions that they wanted to know about the novel. Today, we discussed these questions in class and students asked some very thoughtful and perceptive questions. The last task for students was to discuss the concept of FREEDOM. What does freedom look like, or not look like to them. We then went on to take notes on Setting and discuss.
Assignment: Using the student's independent novel they are currently reading, they should write a 1 paragraph description of the setting in their book.
Note: Students who have still not handed in Rudy Questions....do some homework!
