New Assignments

The flu has inflitrated our group. We were down to three kids yesterday. We are sending get well wishes to those home in bed. Dave, we'll hear your passage picker job next week. We can talk about your fortune, too, David. Maura, thanks for offering to post your questions on the blog. We'd like that. Kids can answer them online.

Here's the next assignment.
Read through page 249.
Maura- Dictionary Detective (use the chart)
Abigail & Noah- Passage Pickers (Choose an artistic medium to depict your passage as well. It could be a drawing, collage, song, poem, skit, etc.)
Dave- Fortune Teller (Remember to support your prediction with text evidence. Make it as specific and detailed as possible.)
David- Summarizer (You can use the Somebody Wanted Because But So format to help you. You may use it over and over until you summarize all the main events and important information, or you may use it to get you jump-started.)
Hope- Discussion Director (Write your questions using the question starter sheets to help you. Remember to write your own answers, too, in complete sentences.)

I look forward to reading your revised stories soon.
:) Rachel
