Activities

= Here are a couple examples of activities we will be completing this year! = = ACTIVITY ONE = = Book Report: Students will be required to choose a book from the library that is appropriate for 7th grade. Once the book is chosen and approved of, students will have one month to read the book. Then, the students will be writing and turning in a book report that outlines all the basic elements of literature such as: characterization, plot, conflict, etc. This is an opportunity for students to choose a book that interests them while practicing their reading comprehension skills! = = = = ACTIVITY TWO = = Write an original haiku poem: Students will be learning that a haiku is a three line poem that has 5 syllables in the first and third and 7 syllables in the middle line. Students will have the opportunity to write their own original haiku poems that will be included in their collection of poetry that we will be compiling throughout the year! If the student chooses this as their best poem it will be included in Room 305's book of poetry at the end of the year! =
