We will be watching the movie version of The Giver.
If you would NOT like your student to watch the movie please fill out the sheet and send it back to Ms. Lorenzen by Wednesday, June 6th.
The students then received their ELA folder.
While receiving papers back from unit 4 the students put their papers into their folder.
The students were given packet #1 and packet #2 back. (This should be kept out of their folders. The students can use their packets to help them study for The Giver test on 6/7.)
After folders were collected again the students work on a memory transmission activity.
Students read 5 different memories from the Giver.
Students were to then think of a historical event (memory) they would want to tell Jonas.
