Today students started the block with silent reading (WIAW 1.1.3)​.

We then finished viewing the original version of The Monsters are Due on Maple Street and submitted our Fluency Logs based on it. We also viewed the updated version. 

I assigned the "Fear writeup" that we started on the first day for homework, due on Monday the 16th. The question was,
  • What makes something worth being afraid of?

Today students received a new Reading Log (WIAW 1.1) (block 8), and the students in blocks 1 and 4 were on day 1.2 of a What's Important and Why log.

We then continued working through "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" with our first Fluency Log. The question for the Quick Write on the Fluency Log is:
  • The story tells you the moral at the end. How much of it do you agree with, and why/how?
Students need to submit their Fluency Logs by next class. We've started viewing the actual episode as well.

For our first class, we went through the course outline and didn't have time for much more. We started an MLA response page based on "Fear." It looked like this, but it didn't get submitted.
