Today, we began class by finalizing our "What I Know/What I Wonder" charts. These were submitted to Ms. Barsky.
Then, students worked through the rest of their elements of fiction package. We discussed the round and flat characters, static and dynamic characters, symbols and themes present in the novels, now that we have finished the books.
Finally, we are going to spend some time thinking about how to make our writing more sophisticated. One of the goals we are setting as a class is to write with more sentence variety. We began a mini-lesson on sentences and sentence types today, and we will continue with this next day.
