To seek, to strive, to find, and not to yield. - Ulysses

Mostly Monday:

Block A:  Today we finished reading the gnome story, "Wish You Were Here" and completed the story map. Then you were given two options for responding to the story - due tomorrow.

Option #1:
Imagine you are one of the police officers investigating the mysterious death of Dorothy.


Write about your reaction to the case, and how you are going to move forward to prove your case.


Option #2:
Re-write the ending of the story.

Think you could end the story more satisfactorily? Take a shot - and re-write the ending the way you think it should have been done.

Blocks B&D:  Today was the start of our short story unit. We looked at the overall expectations of the unit, and started taking some notes - we didn't quite finish - but we will tomorrow, and start reading our first story.

Block C:  Today we attempted to visit the 9/11 interactive timeline with varying success. Hopefully the New York Times will be more successful tomorrow!!!
