Medieval Times

In an effort to continue the unit on Middle Ages and the field trip to Medieval Times, the 6th grade Language Arts and Reading classes will be working on activities relative to the theme. During LA classes the students will be editing an introduction to Medieval Times. The students will focus on finding mistakes with verb usage, capitalization, and fragments. This will be a review of the first 3 units we have completed in LA. During Reading class, the students will write a extended reading response based on our trip to Medieval Times. Before the trip the classes will review the Knight's Code of Chivalry. After reviewing what the Knight's Code includes, the students will be asked to pay attention to knights that follow or do not follow the code. Thursday in class, the students will write a Reading Extended Response on, “Do you think the knights showed chivalry?”. On Friday we will edit and rate the responses to allow the students to fix or add anything to make each response the best it can be.
