Winning Design, Résumés, and Summarizing

First, please take the time to admire all of the designs entered into our museum contest.  Students worked very hard on their designs and should be very proud of themselves.

 

The winning design below was submitted by Alice, Charlotte and Rachel.

 

 

Students worked on their résumés. They should complete them for homework if they did not turn them in today. We also worked on another way to summarize. We talked about the “Somebody Wanted But So” method of summarizing, where students use those words to help them focus on the bigger picture behind their stories rather than getting bogged down in the smaller details. Next week students will be assigned to jobs and we’ll begin to focus on the exhibits that might be found at our museum.
