English 8/9 (2)




Students began the class by miming a scene from the novel The Pearl.  The rest of the class had to guess which scene had been performed.

Students and I then read some selections from chapter 4.  Students were then introduced to two different types of question: recall and respond and critical thinking.

An example of recall and respond might be:
What is the name of Kino and Juana's son?

An example of a critical thinking question might be:
Why might the rich people of La Paz not want poor people to find wealth?

Students were then asked to generate a question of their own from each category.

Students then created a web outlining their own personal identity in their journals.

For homework: Students must make sure that they have read chapter 4
