Oh, my! A full week! What WILL we do?! (Read and write about Phineas Gage and work on our independent reading!)

We began by reading pgs. 53-64. Next, we looked at main ideas in this section and then started Lesson 8 - Analying Topic Development. In group work, we brainstormed social behaviors, which led to our prompt: Write about a recent moment when you had to act in a certain "socially acceptable"" way. Be sure to show the learned social behavior you demonstrated in this moment. (Writing for today will only be graded on the fact that it is a full page.) Reminder to students... tomorrow is the last day to share your writing for the first half of this Phineas Gage unit.

Homework:
* Read 20 min.
