In Language Arts today the students participated in the Memory Transmission Activity. Our classroom was transformed into The Annex where The Giver works. The students worked in small groups and rotated in stations analyzing various memories of events that have taken place within our own society. We discussed whether each event was important for people to remember and why events throughout history are important in general. We then used this information to form opinions about whether or not the citizens of Jonas’s community should have their own memories.
Block Two also had a pizza party today as a celebration for earning the most points on Read Theory throughout the course of the school year! Any student who was fasting was sent home with their pizza slices to enjoy this evening.
Have a great weekend!
