The 4th and 5th graders have been working on their memoirs for about a solid week now. They are beginning to revise their pieces. They are searching for ways to describe their experiences so that when their audience reads their stories "they feel like there is a movie playing in their mind," as Jacque explained.
Here are some pictures of the 4th graders acting out a memoir of my own, Fuji and the Mouse. It is a true story about how my dog saved me from a mouse trapped under my sink by chasing it out the back door. Enjoy!
Eric as The Mouse
Jerrell as Fuji the Dog
Ayo as Me
Max and Henry as The Cabinet
The Mouse hiding in The Cabinet
Jeremiah as The Chair
I was typing peacefully when I heard the mouse under the cabinet...boom, crack, boom, crack!
Malachi wrote down our story while we did the acting
Terell helped Malachi
