Week 7 : G Q Q S
Banned Books Week
HW: RJ 7.2 T.O Ch. 3
We started our day off by writing down the agenda and listening to our daily take a minute. Aanjali read out her blog and chose me to write next. We opened up our Reading Journals and discussed chapter two of the book we've been reading, The Outsiders. We assessed our new characters, Cherry and Marcia, and talked about their differences. In this chapter we learned about how Johnny was jumped by the Socs. and how it affected him. "Things are rough all over" is an important quote that Cherry said on page 35 which Ms. Nakada asked if we agree with. After we were done talking about The Outsiders, we began working on our quote, question, and song, of the week. Our weekly quote was by Stephen Chbosky, the author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower. "Banning books gives us silence when we need speech. It closes our ears when we need to listen. It makes us blind when we need sight." was his quote. After reading the quote, we all wrote our opinion on what the author is trying to say. Next, We looked at a sheet about banned books. Our question of the week was if we read banned books. Since all of us are reading The Outsiders, we all read banned books. As the clock ticked closer to 1:55, We wrapped our day up and packed to leave. We waited for the bell to ring and once Ms. Nakada dismissed us, we all left.
