Unfortunately, I'll be out with the 8th graders for their trip when we get back from Memorial Day weekend. Students will continue to work on their Utopias in the lab along with a few other projects if they happen to finish up their Utopia presentations.
Other projects include:
Saving a Memory-- Students will choose a memory from childhood to describe in the first person point of view using plenty of sensory details. The idea is to capture a moment that The Giver has taught us that we should not take for granted
A Day in the Life of Your Utopia -- Students will write a story of a character having an eye opening moment in their utopias that they have created. Students must look critically at their communities and identify major weaknesses despite their attempt to create a perfect world for this narrative.
Deep Sea Haiku -- Students will write a Haiku about the deep sea creature they drew for Ms. Stocker's math class.
