Just finished The Giver! Ask your child about literary devices!
Currently, we are studying Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing!
We are in the middle of presentations. The students chose an author to learn about and present to the class. They made an Infographic to organize and present the information to the class. Ask your child to show you her or his Infographic!
It's Tuesdays with Morrie time. What a powerful memoir. This novel is about the life of Morrie Schwartz. Morrie taught invaluable lessons to all those who would listen. Specifically, Morrie positively influenced one of his former students, Mitch Albom. So much so, in fact, that Mitch dramatically re-prioritized his life. Morrie asked questions that prompted listeners to reflect deeply about the world around them. Right now, the students are reflecting on Mitch's question to readers which is found at the beginning of the book: Have you ever had a teacher like this? Ask your child what he or she thinks about the novel so far!
