Scholars learned about symbolism today and then participated in a Gallery walk/ Big Paper photo analysis where they had to analyze and determine the meaning of items and people from the play 12 Angry Men! So proud ๐

After realizing that I needed to rethink how I was teaching hooks I came up with this cool lesson where students debated the strength of hooks related to a theme, went back and enhanced their hooks and then participated in a gallery walk where they got to give feedback to peers.

Scholars had to determine the MOST important details in the chapter and textual evidence to support it. They then did a Jigsaw discussion where they had to debate whose findings/evidence were strongest. Discussions like this lead to more detail in their writing! #spartanlegacy
Seventh grade scholars have been researching the Indian culture and had a blast teaching their peers all of the interesting information they learned! Now time to connect this information to our new class novel,Homeless Bird! #spartanlegacy
