We uploaded a short story (The Wallet) and included questions throughout, definitions, and an essential question. It's a great way to scaffold.

Not sure if you'll be able to see this:

This is the master doc that shows the memory transmission that each group received. Together, the students read the memory and answered the questions regarding their particular memory. The group then decided on a new memory to present to Jonas, the main character in The Giver. Each group had one person present to the whole class. We wanted to up engagement by having different memories and not all groups doing the same. ]]> 2021-03-19 16:50:31 UTC https://padlet.com/eajohnso1/1z65692fousit32x/wish/1330629366 https://padlet.com/eajohnso1/1z65692fousit32x/wish/1330630353 2021-03-19 16:50:43 UTC https://padlet.com/eajohnso1/1z65692fousit32x/wish/1330630353 https://padlet.com/eajohnso1/1z65692fousit32x/wish/1330638147 We are regularly using this catch and release workshop model ]]> 2021-03-19 16:52:22 UTC https://padlet.com/eajohnso1/1z65692fousit32x/wish/1330638147 https://padlet.com/eajohnso1/1z65692fousit32x/wish/1331050762 Lots of that positivity and

I heard students eager to participate (when asked for volunteers). Clearly a supportive learning environment. 
I heard students participating in breakout rooms. They seemed really prepared. 
I saw Rose leading students through the precision of language Google Doc and students had input on the activity.
