1st trimester – Day 12
Checked homework: personal plotline with 25 points, labeled with numbers
While I check your homework, get 2 pieces of paper….number one of them 1-20 in preparation for your capitalization test – save the other for your warmup activity.
Completed work on CONFLICT
Next sentence type introduced – “5-things sentence” – get notes from classmate…(chose five items from the room then wrote them into a sentence by forming a relationship or connection between the items…) then we chose 5 words from this week’s prefix/suffix list and tried the same thing
Read excerpt from Zen Shorts (“The Farmer’s Luck”) by Jon J. Muth – discussed the connections between this story and our personal plotlines
Worked on rough draft of paper due tomorrow - use your personal plotlines as a guide to write a story about an inanimate object that experiences highs and lows in the same order, but not the same events.
Homework:
Typed draft of your personal plotline/inanimate object story STAPLED to your plotline (from today) – do NOT include your detailed list of events
