Historical Dress-Up Day:
Costumes must be in the theme of our historic studies this year, which will cover The Holy Roman Empire (1550) through the World of the Forty-Nine(1850). Guidelines: No weapons, no gore, nothing scary, students need to be able to move and sit properly and use the restroom on their own. Have fun thinking of ideas.
IEW:
We are continuing to work how to write a story using a Story Sequence Chart Outline. This Outline is the same as the KWO, the only difference is the KWO has three sections to it. We are on week 3 this week.
Week three is the climax, resolution and theme.
Week four we will combine all the rough drafts into a three paragraph story. We will not write a final draft until we combine all three weeks. Each week will have a checklist that needs to be completed for that section.
