4/22 Earth Day

Agenda:

Attendance
Prayer
Earth Day

Period 1 and 2: For Earth Day, we read Edwin Way Teale's essay "The Death of a Tree" in class. We discussed the cycle of life as depicted in the story, and we shared our own stories of personal connection to trees.

Period 3: We visited the STEP Projects, and we tried to use those as inspiration for "Flash Fiction."

Period 6: We revisited terms and concepts of poetry, and we wrote collaborative poems.

Period 7: We composed short-short fiction with the theme of science or Earth Day.
Homework:

No homework from today, but the assignments from last class, 2 PIE paragraphs and your vocab worksheets/quiz, are due next class.
