Language Arts:
Today we read & saw an illustrated version of "Theseus and the Minotaur." We watched a clip of Suzanne Collins and her classical inspiration for her book. We journaled (#10) comparing this story & Hunger Games looking for similarities. We summarized the story.
We met in Literature Circles to discuss Chapters 21 & 22; we took a quiz on 22 as a team and assigned jobs for tonight.
We took our Simple Solutions Test on Lessons 13, 14, 15, 16 and checked in our binder signatures.
We received a chart of character traits for our binder and received our character analysis graphic organizer and facebook page template (Choose Peeta or Katniss; Facebook page could be on any character in The Hunger Games.)
Harvard & Yale handed in their grammar online quiz sheets.
