What We Learned Today...April 11th

Taking a second to pose at the Theatre!

ELA:  Now that we've finished up our essay structure review, students began to write their own persuasive essays based on the following prompt: "Some critics believe that Dystopian books rely too much on violence and as a result are warping the minds of young adults. They believe that these books should be taken out of schools. Do you agree? Do you disagree?

The Testing Crew

Dystopian Movie:  After recess we boarded the bus and headed straight to the Galaxy Cinemas to watch Allegiant. During this time we also got the opportunity to meet with the other students and teachers who have been participating in the same Dystopian Unit as us.  It was so cool to finally meet the these people face to face, as before today they were only a name on a computer screen.

As always, I was impressed with how well the students at Deshaye represented themselves and their school today. Well done everyone!

The whole Deshaye crew!
