11.18 - Unit 1 Roots and Prefixes Quiz

At the beginning of class, everyone had a few minutes to review their unit 1 roots and prefixes.

 

We then played a round of Language Ninja in preparation for the unit 1 review quiz. The rules for this game and extra roles are below. For the unit review version of this game, we focused on defining the roots and prefixes only. We were not accepting answers of words that contained the root or prefix.

We then had the unit 1 roots and prefixes quiz which we corrected immediately after everyone had completed it.

 

Tomorrow, we will return to our analysis of the beast in Lord of the Flies (everyone should have their  representations of the beast filled out for the "Beast from Water" and "Beast from Air" chapters completed).

Homework:

 

Make sure that your "Beast from Water" and "Beast from Air" sections are complete on the beast tracking sheet.

 

Make sure that your person, place, and object tracking information is up to date on the Google Drive spreadsheet (email Mr. Collins if you need to be granted access to this document).
