Wednesday, October 30th

Students had their weekly in-class Compass time today.  They worked on reinforcing their understanding of verbs and some students finished writing their reading responses.   We began our close readings of The Giver with an analysis of the setting.  We started discussing the characteristics of and differences between utopias and dystopias.  Each class came up with slightly different definitions and used  from the book so tomorrow, I'll share the notes from each group.
