5PA Update
During the upcoming week, students will begin reading a story entitled "The Great Blackberry Pick" by Philippa Pearce. Students will be reviewing vocabulary from the story using Quizlet, an interactive site that enables learners to use collaborative skills to identify the definitions of words. As a class, we will complete a first read of the text. For the remainder of the week, students will be closely reading the text and annotating. They will be given 2-3 days to annotate. We will continue to use concepts/icons from the Depth and Complexity framework as a guide during the annotation process. Students will be encouraged to take a close look at the ethical issues within the text; this will be a major focus. Prior to annotating, we will review ethics and discuss ethical issues that are happening in our world. I am looking forward to observing the complex ideas that students will unearth when reading this literary piece.
