The One Book One School kickoff started today!! Introducing Steelheart! Read and enjoy! This is not required reading, but as I always say, it is more fun to be involved than not.
All classes today analyzed and annotated a compare and contrast exemplar for format. After this, students created their Venn diagrams for finding a common theme between two anchor texts. We will go from there to a prewrite, and then they will begin writing their compare/contrast 4 paragraph papers. I also gave reading time so that students could start to feel invested in Steelheart.
H/W: Read you OBOS novel! Steelheart!
P. 3: Venn Diagram for LWTW and your novel choice due Monday.
P. 2,6: RC guiding questions due Monday. Don't forget to use evidence when indicated.
Have a wonderful weekend! Have fun in the Super Bowl fury!
