Day # 7 Tuesday

Day # 7 Tuesday 12/4


Flipgrid Grades are in and will be a separate grade in Social Studies because it is
SS content.  If you are unhappy with your grade you may redo the flipgrid by the
end of this week. It must be done at school, with the knowledge of a teacher.


Wondering where you are headed? Here is a sampling of past pieces.
1 Thatcher, 2 James and Eliza, 3-Zach Richards
Your job now is to start creating your own song by writing the first stanza. The
focus is JUST on STANZA ONE.


Before you start writing you must Identify the following at the top of your paper:
NARRATOR
LOCATION
TIME
(Ex. Song about Carlisle Indian School)
Narrator - Young Cheyenne boy
Location - Cheyenne Indian Reservation
Time - The government agent is there to gather the kids to go to Carlisle via
railroad


OTHER IMPORTANT REQUIREMENTS:
  • Be sure to use images to relay ideas (they work better than telling)
  • A stanza is typically between 6 and 8 lines


Now you are going to get into your city groups. It is important to recognize you
are all in this together. The better each individual song is, the better your whole
project will be so help each other out, make suggestions and give praise when it is
deserved.
Group tasks:
   --share your work so far. Remember this is a first draft. It will have some
strengths but will most likely need to be “finessed”. Listen to each other and
provide solid feedback (1 praise, 1 suggestion per person)
--Once ALL work has been shared and ideas shared, you will consider the
different topics that are present in your city, then you will, as a group,
create a slogan for your city--this will be shared with Mr. Clark and Ms. Carlisto
and will be recorded


What is a slogan?
It is a short memorable phrase that captures the essence of the place


HW: Prepare for and schedule with a teacher your flipgrid redo
"finalize" your first stanza you will need it for the beginning of class tomorrow
