Agenda
1) Warmup
Tell me about the disaster you researched.

Alternate warmup for kids who haven't done their research yet:
Write a letter to your parent/guardian telling them why you do not do your work.

2) Book club
3) Feature article instructions and grader

Homework
None

Today we had an extended warmup, designed to help kids get a head start on the part of their feature article that discusses the disaster itself. I also handed out and went over the final instructions for the article, including the visual rubric that will be used to grade the final product.

The Feature Article is due on Wednesday, 12/17. Don't be late!
