Riley leveled us up yesterday! I’m now  Cabin Boy! Half the crew is still Landlubbers, so make sure that you are getting your work in. Once the ENTIRE crew gets to Level 1 (that’s ALL classes), we will be rewarded with booty!

The Cap’n started out by giving us each a page from Animalia and we had to do a Word Seach on our letter by finding all of the letters in our picture.

 

Then, with the letter that we were given, we wrote a sentence with AT LEAST ten words that start with your letter. For example, if you had the letter E, you have to use ten E words in your sentence. You can have words that start with other letters – you just need ten E words. Check the rubric to see how she is going to grade it.

Then, we listened to The Breaks and did a Magnet Card summary over caesuras.

WE also learned about kennings, which is a compound nickname. Go to the drop box and give a nickname to the five things there.

We also did a summary sentence over what we learned today: Why the bards talk funny. A hint: A, C, and K.

When you finish, play the Scrambled Dark Ages game – you will see these on the quiz tomorrow (and on the final exam in March)! Don’t worry – the quiz isn’t scrambled – it’s multiple choice! 🙂
