Today at the beginning of class, you took a short reading quiz. I then asked you to discuss some of your initial impressions regarding Meet Addy and we looked a bit at the American Girl Doll website. Next, you broke into small groups to work on an writing exercise in which you focused on a significant passage from the text. You can access that exercised HERE. I asked a few volunteers to share their work. After you shared your writing, we moved into a large group discussion. I handed around the colored cards with your discussion prompt and asked you to spend 10 minutes doing some writing about your topic. We then worked our way around the group and you shared your comments.
Homework
