Week 3: G.Q.Q.S.L

Readers workshop

Eighth Grade Dues

HW RJ Inside Out and Back Again  P235-260


First, Ms. Nakada had us open our English notebooks and look at the Line "No one leaves home unless home is the mouth of a shark" by Warsan Shire.

We listened to the poem "Home" about leaving where you're from because of war or other tragedies to go somewhere safer for you and how terrifying it can be. They sometimes get mistreated and discriminated upon.

Then, we opened Inside Out and Back Again and talked about how Ha used her words instead of her fists. Then, we read about Ha and how her brother Vu planned to get her out of the fight which doesn't work at first, but works out in the end.

  AGENDA Take a minute Blog corrections Week 17: G-Q-Q-L Poetry Submissions HW: Poetry Submissions due Friday 5/9! RJ 17.2 read toward your IRP! 30 iReady lessons ---------------------------------------------------------------------- We started off the class by taking a minute. Then, we read the blog and me and Lanaja were chosen to do the one you're reading, basically by default. After the blog, we moved on to our week 17 question. Our question this week was: Who do you look to for understanding the difference between right and wrong? Lanaja wanted to share her response. It was God and Dr. J (pastor's wife). We all know one of those. Once we discussed the question, and our morality, we moved on to our poetry submissions. We worked on our poetry submissions for the rest of class. Finally, the bell rang, we packed up for class, and left to our next period. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...
