11.04 - Character, Object, and Place tracking

We started today's class by looking at the set five roots and prefixes. Today, we were only concerned with drawing initial pictures and identifying any words that people already knew that use these roots/prefixes.

Extra copies of these sheets are available here:

Next, we made book covers for our Lord of the Flies books on which everyone wrote the book title, their name, and the three things they are tracking in the story. Along with writing the person, object, and place being tracked, everyone could draw their character in the place they are focused on with the object they are tracking.

Everyone then had time to meet with each partner with whom they are working on this.

Homework:

Read chapter seven in The Lord of the Flies. Continue to put down sticky notes when your person, place, or object is mentioned (one sticky note per page, per element is fine).
