Intermediate School News: October 5 – October 11, 2015

6th Grade English

Mrs. McQueen’s 6th Grade English class, students are reading Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech. As the students read, they are taking the journey across the country with the main character using Google Lit Trips. Students will journal as they “travel” in Google Earth. This is a great way for students to get a feel for the exciting things that the characters experience in the story.
