3rd week reflection

This week we watched Star Wars, Episode 4 (the original) in order to learn the separate stages of the Hero's Journey.  We watched Luke Skywalker accept his Call, cross the Threshold into the unknown, and go through many challenges before we saw the childish part of himself die and a new, more mature Luke emerge.  Obviously, Luke will be called to more journeys, but his first journey has gone full cycle, so that he can progress and grow as a person.

Next week, we will be completing our note-taking and you will be using your notes to complete an in class 20 minute writing sample.

We took our first Vocabulary test this week.  Interventions for those who got below a "C" will be on Thursday.
