Thursday, August 22

(Neda Awwad)

Agenda:

1- Ray Bradburry The Veldt

-Finish reading and annotating

-Develop three of each type discussion questions (fact, interpretation, evaluation)

HW: 1-finish vocab pack and study for spelling test and include parts of speech

Today in class, we finished annotating Ray Bradburry’s story, The Veldt. After annotating and reading the whole story, we learned how to develop new questions to the three types of discussion questions: fact, interpretation, and evaluation.

Fact: questions that you could find the answers to from the story

How many kids were there?

Interpretation: No one can answer. It’s your opinion

What do you think happens at the end?

Evaluation: own personal thought of the story

Whose fault was it, the parents or the kids?

Then we wrote down three questions of each kind of question during class. For Homework, we had to finish the vocabulary packet and study for the spelling test. If you didn’t finish annotating during class, then finish it at home.
