ENGLISH – 1^st trimester – Day 1

Found our assigned seats and tables

Read introductory letter to parents – asked questions about new teacher

Watched introductory videos as well as “Cyborg” video

In our table groups, we

1.      listed 10 abilities for the cyborg.

2.      chose our favorite ability of the 10 and then

3.      created both a back-story (past) and

4.      a future for the chosen ability.

5.      illustrate your idea.

Tornado, Fire, and Code Red drills explained

If time: shared table work with the rest of the class by explaining the ability we chose as well as the past and future stories about that ability.
