3) Elements worksheet
Homework
What happens when they get back to school? Write a new ending to Priscilla and the Wimps (2 or 3 sentences)
Today we read our first short story, called "Priscilla and the Wimps" by Richard Peck. It deals with bullying, so we started by discussing bullying at Hale. Most of my students reported that there is very little bullying at Hale, especially compared with other schools.
The story of "Priscilla and the Wimps" ends somewhat unresolved, so for homework the students will write a new ending that will be answer the question of what the students find when they come back to school after the snowstorm. Just one paragraph .
