Because so many students had great questions about the Holocaust (block 3), and about gangs (block 6), we spent today's lesson looking at images which helped us understand more about what the world looked like and might have smelled like/felt like, during the time of our books. These images help us get a better feel for what Bruno's life and DeShawn's life might have been like.
We then spent more time looking at the types of sentences available to us as writers. We spent time writing the most awesome simple sentences we could... and some of them were pretty awesome. On to compound and complex sentences next day!
