We will be using stations to help our transition from Of Mice & Men into our Marketing with Empathy unit that will result in us taking over WickedFocus.com from last year's classes.
Stations this week will include.
Jenga Your Roots. Create Jenga constructs to represent Roots 7 terms. Post images in your Google Drive folder. Prepare for a quiz next week.
Frankenword. Design new words using your Roots 6 & 7 terms. Put them to work in sentences that relate to the bigger messages and themes from Of Mice & Men.
Theme. Complete a Notice/Wish/Wonder over this video on Theme.
No Red Ink: Commonly Confused Words II. Complete the diagnostic on No Red Ink and the practice, if you so choose, to prepare for a quiz next week.
Designing & Writing: Several folks still need to complete their narrative writings and their tiny house designs. There will be some time to do that at one of the stations.
Potent Quotables: At the Potent Quotables station, you will be learning how to combine words from a text -- in this case Of Mice & Men -- and images from a source -- in this case, Unsplash.com -- to create a visual worth of sharing on Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, Snapchat, Instagram, Pinterest and beyond. That visual will speak to one of the THEMES evident in Of Mice & Men. You will need to explain your thinking and intentions as this will end up being a reading assessment for the quarter.
Here are some examples from the first sessions of Potent Quotables.
