June 7th

Some of my books came back today! Thank you for searching for them!! 🙂  I am still missing (that I know of!):  Dork Diaries #9 & #11 – hard cover, 5 Judy Moody books (numbers unknown), Dear Dumb Diary #2, Scarlett (Cinder #2).  ALL books are labeled with my name either on the edges of the pages or on a sticker that says “This book belongs to Mrs. Dailing. Please return as soon as possible!” located on the front cover.

Today we discussed the ending of The Giver and completed our Pyramid of Action. We also discussed theme and conflicts and were introduced to our final assignment: “Instagram It!” where students need to choose a character from The Giver and create a “post” about a conflict that character faced in the novel from their point of view.  This will be due by the end of class tomorrow along with ALL other classwork listed below.
