Making Strides
Hello! All classes are keeping busy as usually! So, here is what we have been doing: 6th Grade- They have been learning about the narrator's point of view, first person or third person as well as a character's traits whether it is appearance or personality. They recently paired up to create a short story and create a character. The stories were either from the first person point of view,using the pronoun "I", or the third person point of view, using the pronouns he or she. Based off the character's appearance in the story the pairs had to draw their character. Each group read their story and presented their character to the class. They all did very well and there was a lot of creativity! We recently read a story about a hero. So, for tomorrow they will be doing a little research on a historical hero using the Internet. I made a packet of questions and such for them to fill out. We will present these heroes on Monday. Feel free to e-mail me with any question...
