BHH

In grade 7, we continued our personal narrative short story study with the text “Eleven” by Sandra Cisneros.

We used the BHH Reading from “Disrupting Thinking” by Beers and Probst. We reread the story and paused to talk about what the text said (book), what surprised us (head) and what the story made us feel (heart).

Students were then challenged to answer the following questions about the personal narratives they have started planning and writing:

What is going to surprise the reader?
What is the reader going to feel?

On Monday, we will be looking at more mentor texts for personal narratives. The BHH will be our guide as we think about why the stories are effective personal narratives.
