Sixth Graders Read the Incredible Journey

By Jennifer Bent
The sixth graders read The Incredible Journey written by Shelia Burnford. After reading this adventurous story, students worked with small groups to create projects  incorporating their knowledge of the book and creativity. Projects were music soundtracks, movie posters and trivia games. Each project had specific guidelines and a grading rubric to foster success. Shown from left to right, in the photo, Savanna “Billy” Caron (red shirt to the left)  instructs her peers on the rules of the game. Next to Billy (clockwise) are: Ella Labrie, Myles Keyser, Makayla French, Ryleigh Perry, Trevor Rosser, Dom Delaney, Declan Bisson, Cooper Hedderig, Indira McIntyre, and Hannah Churchill.
