The Mystery of Harris Burdick

Now that you are familiar with the mystery, go to this site and click on the individual images from the book to make them larger. In your writer's notebook, write down a sentence that describes what you think might be happening in that picture. There are no right or wrong answers. Your answers can be realistic or fantasy based. Don't limit your imagination. Just be sure to number your sentences as you go so I'll know which sentence you write goes with which picture.

If you have extra time, click on the names of students linked in blue to read what other students thought was going on in each of the pictures.

Subjects and Predicates

1. Play this Jeopardy game with a partner. Do not play with the pronouns column, but you may use the fact and opinion column. When it is your turn, choose a topic and point amount. Read the question out loud to your partner then say what you think the answer is out loud. Your partner then clicks on "Correct Answer". If you got the answer correct, add that amount of points to your total score at the bottom of the screen. If you did NOT get the question correct, subtract that number of points from your total points.

Once you have completed all of the columns except for the pronouns column, record each player's score in the upper left hand corner of your worksheet.


2. Then complete the worksheet on your own.
