Lesson 6

 Students read for 15 minutes to begin the class

We worked in small groups, then as a class, to work through the "For the Birds" short from yesterday, then we looked at multiple comics to solidify our grasp of the different kinds of irony ***specifically, students need to be able to say what kind of irony something is, and WHY/HOW THEY KNOW

We connected these ideas to irony in our last two stories.

Students received a list of vocabulary words for our upcoming story

HOMEWORK: Write two sentences for each of the vocabulary words - one should be a definition of the word, and the second should be a sentence which indicates you know the meaning of the word.


P.S. - We also discussed the ethics of the "mosquito" sound - and the injustice of its use in public space
