JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "You Talk Too Much" by Run-D.M.C.; "Communication Breakdown" by Led Zeppelin]
So
many phrases say the same thing: Talk is cheap. A picture's worth a
thousand words. It's not what you said, it's how you said it. Since
words are so easy to create we tend to mistrust them. We use our
intuition to "read between the lines" and determine what someone really means.
Describe how we
listen, read, and learn without depending on words.
AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Vocab Q & A
3. Big Question: Next steps
4. Literature Analysis/ find a novel by this Friday (8/30)
