B day: Go to the library to check out books
A day: Silent Reading
How They Croaked: We read the chapters on Galileo and Darwin
Text Structure Booklet: We did a descriptive graphic organizer on your own fear/phobia as Darwin was afraid of just about everything. We then wrote a descriptive paragraph using the information from the graphic organizer.
Final Project Ideas: For the final project, students will be writing another chapter to How They Croaked. The chapter needs to be about a different person who is NOT in the book and who has died. Students came up with three individuals they would be interested in doing their final project on and then turned these in.
Homework: Reading
