Week of 9/26/2011

This week, we will be continuing our look at the elements of fiction.  Last week, you focused on making connections to the text. Another way to connect to the text is to figure out the lesson or message that the author is trying to make. This will help you determine the theme, one of the main elements of Fiction.

We will begin reading the story "Sucker" - a tale about a teen who changes his perspective on two people in his life.  We will take notes on the fiction elements, answer questions and work with the vocabulary in the story.

Let's have a great week!
