All classes watched a current events video and responded with mock editorials. 7th ELA classes elaborated on their journals and turned them into full length editorials. Students responded to a current events story, formed an opinion, and developed this opinion over three paragraphs. GATE classes finished reading, analyzing, and discussing "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Ray Bradbury. We reviewed the concept of theme, developed themes for past readings, and identified recurring themes from literature. Students will demonstrate their understanding of theme with a "theme collage."
