Journal entry #8
A Narrative -- choose to write one:
     A person you admire & why, their words, their accomplishments

We recorded and discussed the special academic vocabulary of DRAMA.

We watched a Brain Pop on Drama and took a "listening" quiz.

We took notes on Tragedy, Tragic heroes, and Comedy.

We took our Simple Solutions Test #16.
