Block 1
We discussed and read about the elements of plot in our literature books (page 24). We then wrote our own stories using a prompt Mrs. H gave us in class. We will finish those tomorrow in class.

For Social Studies, we took notes on the Middle Ages. We took them "Cornell style".

Period 3
We discussed conflict in literature and compared internal to external conflict in our small groups.


Block 2

We discussed and read about the elements of plot in our literature books (page 24). We then wrote our own stories using a prompt Mrs. H gave us in class. We shared our stories with our partners.

In Social Studies, we continued our background blitz and nearly finished the Middle Ages!
We are continuing to practice/learn the art of taking notes "Cornell Style"!
