We are working on historical fiction this week and we will be completing a project. We are reading "Christmas in the Big House, Christmas in the Quarters" on Monday and Tuesday. The students will complete a 4 square to demonstrate their understanding of story elements and to work on vocabulary and sequencing skills. . Students will then have the opportunity to choose two other activities from a Tic-Tac-Toe to complete. There are links to both the 4 Square and the Tic-Tac-Toe below. This project will have 3 components each of which will be a project grade (35%)
