Would You Rather?

Feel free to answer any of the following questions. Or add your own for others to answer (appropriate of course!)

1. Would you rather have a magic carpet that flies or your own personal robot?

2. Would you rather not be allowed to watch TV for a year or not be allowed to eat/drink anything with sugar for a year?

3. Would you rather have the chance to design a new video game or direct a movie?

4. Would you rather have the ability to control the weather or talk to animals?

5. Would you rather eat a whole jar of mayonnaise or drink a cup of hot sauce?

One Event

Write about one event from this weekend using sensory details.

Friday Free Write

It's Friday! What's on your mind? Is there a story brewing, just some random thoughts? Take some time today to have a free write.

The World Outside

Go outside sometime today and describe the scenery. What do you see, hear, smell, and feel (um, don't taste anything unless it's a picnic). You can even write a Haiku poem that follows the 5 - 7 - 5 syllable format.

Early Riser or Late Nighter?

What's better, getting up early in the morning or staying up late at night? What are the pros and cons of both? Does the early bird really get the worm?

Schedule

At school we have a daily schedule, a predictable routine that helps us know what to do and what comes next for each part of the day. Right now you may not have a daily schedule for yourself. Tomorrow we're officially starting our Distance Learning. I posted suggested schedules on Google Classroom and in your Wilkinson Class Shared Folder on Google Docs.

Use these tools to help you create your own daily schedule.

Monday March 23, 2020 Treasure Chest

You are on a quest in Egypt to find the Pharaoh's treasure! Write a first person fictional narrative that includes the following:

As I opened the ancient treasure chest, I was shocked to discover...

One Positive

Hi everyone! I'm hoping to connect with you soon! For now, if you want to write a journal entry, write about one positive thing that happened to you this week. Please remember my expectations to only write your journal entry, and make only positive comments to others. This is NOT a social media outlet so please no "chats" on each others posts.

Narrative Weekend (Part 2)

Turn one event from this weekend into a narrative.

Personal Narrative Weekend

Turn one event from this weekend into a personal narrative. Use story elements (characters, setting, plot) and dialogue.
