Introducing Six-Word Memoirs!

Students and Parents, please view our 6th Grade 6-word memoir video at the following link. Because the video could not have music added to it, I suggest you also open a tab to the following song to listen to while you watch our slides. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZeVx_9au5g) This song was agreed upon by the class, but students may suggest another song since it isn't directly linked to the video.

Enjoy!

#SummerVaca! 

Grades 6, 7, and 8 started off the year by telling all about their favorite parts of their summers! Students brought in pictures and wrote complete paragraphs describing some awesome summer activities. Please enjoy the pictures below!

You will have 15 minutes to complete the following. Go into your LAST NAME folder and be sure the following documents are there AND COMPLETE:

1. 6 word brainstorm
2. 6 word research
3. Pixar clips
4. #summervaca (unless your class didn't complete or you hand-wrote it)
5. Quick Writes
6. Video Research

If these documents are not in your LAST NAME folder or are INCOMPLETE, they will be graded as such!

In your Quick Writes document (which is ALREADY saved in your LAST NAME FOLDER) answer the following question and DATE the response! Type it directly under the Tuesday's response!

Research one memoir at: http://www.sixwordmemoirs.com/teens/index.php

Do you like it? Why or why not? Is it similar to a story you might tell? Explain.

In a new document titled "Quick Writes," answer the following prompt. Please DATE this response and save the document in the folder with your LAST NAME!
