7th graders spent 15 minutes at the Book Fair. When we came back to the classroom students wrote down our 3 big questions that we will exploring as we study the novel The Giver. These three questions align with the themes of this book and will be the topic of our class discussion tomorrow. They are:
1. Do you think that a society needs rules in order to function? Explain why or why not.
2. How much choice do you think children should be allowed? What do you think children should be allowed to choose? What do you think children should NOT be allowed to choose?
3. Do you think memories are important? Explain your answer.
Students wrote down these questions in their Reader's Notebooks and generated a least one paragraph response for each question. We spent the remainder of class taking the prepositional phrase quiz. Graded quizzes will be passed back sometime this week.
