It's About Time Video and Writing Review
5 classroom days left! See the review schedule on the board. C-block, remember that the Brooklyn Elementary students are coming on Wednesday. B-block, remember that the awards assembly is on Friday.
How are your Macbeth Videos Coming? What do you need to get them in for tomorrow? We want to watch them Wednesday - Friday.
B Block Review:
1) Watch The Secret Powers of Time
It is about how people see the world, their work, their past, their future, their education and each other.
2) Brainstorm a writing topic - using the video as a springboard.
(What are the characteristics of a good topic?)
3) Write a thesis statement.
(What does a brilliant thesis contain?)
4) Silent Free Write - 15 minutes.
5) In a pair or trio read your work aloud. Look at the list of things to think about on the board.
6) Redraft and rewrite - piece by piece - teacher instructed. Final product. Woo!
