Monday Sept 8th Day 18

In your journals/composition books, please answer this question


Warm-Up Activity
What have you found to be the most difficult part of the Fairy Tale project so far?




5 themes Poster - 
Get with your 5 themes group and make sure you have shared each poster within the group. Someone make a slide at the beginning that lists the group members names and which themes poster they built. Save that 6 slides as 1 pdf and email it to me. The title just needs to be your period and the term 5 themes poster project. If you decided to print out your poster, simply turn it in.


Today's task:   By the end of this period, you should have your questionnaire finished and have started/continued to re-write you Fairy Tale.

Make sure you include the 5 Themes when you are re-writing the Fairy Tale, and make sure they are really obvious when mentioned. i.e. if the story includes a passage about the PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS of PLACE (such as a desert) make sure you have a picture/drawing of a desert. If the story involves a windmill or water wheel (HUMAN ENVIRONMENTAL INTERACTION) make sure there is a picture/image/drawing of it.

 Steps to take today:  

* Get connected with your 3 o'clock partner make sure you are finished with your questionnaire. Each person will submit a questionnaire to me.

   * Begin/continue re-writing your story. Make sure to include images of the 5 themes as they relate to your story

   * Remember to make a cover to your Fairy Tale story, this is where your title should go as well as the names of the 2 students who have worked on it.

Here is a resource to help fill-in your questionnaire - ( Culture Gram ) these Culture Grams contain lots of information that can be used inside of your story to make it accurate to the country in which the Fairy Tale is happening. In addition, you can use the web to find additional sites to help fill-in the questionnaire.
