Run for your lives!!!! The Zombie Apocalypse has struck in the lil' ole' town of Leedey!! It is up to my 8th graders to save themselves and as many other survivors as possible!!
First they will partner up and brainstorm all that they know about zombie so that they can create an evacuation plan and a survival guide. Then after all of that planning, they will organize the key points that they want to stress in their 5 paragraph informative/explanatory essays. We are also collaberating with Mr. McClendon's history class. The 8th graders have been studying the 13 colonies with him. He is going to encorporate some type of zombie survival lesson that encompasses what they've learned with the 13 colonies. Finally the students will do a media presentation for the both of us, and they will be scored on it accordingly. Sounds fun!! But we've got to stay focused and stay alive to finish the task by Fall Break. Wish us Luck!!!
