They went back into their draft to make sure their story was written from a third person limited perspective and followed the elements of a science fiction text. The students also added dialogue and imagery to their story.\u00a0 If they wanted to try to add other types of figurative language, they were allowed to do that too. If students wanted to finish this at home, they were allowed to do so.\u00a0 Otherwise, this was filed in their writing folder in the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, we began brainstorming ideas for a poem about themselves.\u00a0 They focused on ideas that make them who they are. If they did not finish this in class, it was not assigned as homework. They will be given more time to work on it again in class tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Have a wonderful Wednesday!<\/p>\n<p>Homework:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Read for 20 minutes<\/li>\n<li>5 Read Theory Quizzes due Friday<\/li>\n<li>One-Pagers 3 and 4 due Friday<\/li>\n<li>All Late Work due Friday<\/li>\n<li>Unit 2 Test Monday: Story Devices, Mood and Tone, Conflict, and Genre<\/li>\n<li>Moby Max: Adjectives and Figurative Language due Friday, January 18th<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Onomatopoeia creative project\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/I1GC1yWdM_c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Figurative Language- Personification\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7JY7s3C6aSk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Language Arts today the students learned about onomatopoeia and personification.
