Today we:
First, discussed you as an effective communicator developing your competencies through talking, reading, listening, writing, and viewing/representing. Your development will be organized 3 ways: 1) your binder (with 5 dividers), 2) writer's portfolio, 3) and DEAR reading journal. All of those things will be kept in class.
Secondly, we reviewed the literary elements in small groups than as a whole class game. Now you can start using those terms when you are writing your DEAR journals.
If you missed class: You will need to copy the notes taken from a friend or come get them from me. Make sure you will bring the following materials needed for next class...
Next class September 11 (Day 8): You need your agenda, binder with 5 dividers, and I will be checking that your literary elements handout was completed. Please also bring any of the following you think represents you: pictures from the internet, photo albums, magazines, quotations, lyrics from songs, poems, stickers, etc., and colouring pencils. We will be making the Writer's Portfolios.
