Patterns

Inferences

Starter:

1.  Thinking back to yesterday, how can you connect Clue to And Then There Were None?

Activity:

1.  Let's look back to the prologue.  What is the significance of the Soldier Boys rhyme?  What do you predict its role will be?

 

2.  With a partner, read pages 1-15.  Take turns alternating sections 1-8, thinking about which character intrigues you the most. 

 

3.  Once you pick the character that intrigues you the most, create a Facebook profile about him/her.

A.  Infer what you think the character looks like, and draw a picture.

B.  Create an "About Me" section using the information given.

C.  Create a fun status.
