__Bellwork:__ Quietly continue work on rough draft of cave paintings, or start working on the narrative to accompany your drawing. (2 minutes)

1. Students will continue working on their cave paintings. When the students have completed a rough draft, they will show me their work, I will approve/disapprove of it and the students can then use markers, colored pencils, or crayons to complete their cave drawings on their “aged paper” which I will bring back to class.

In addition, students will also have time to continue working on the narrative section of their project. This narrative is to be a compliment to their cave painting and will take us through their cave painting orally. Students need to make sure that their cave paintings as well as stories connect to the past (as discussed in their social studies and language arts classes), and contain characteristics of non-fiction throughout their narrative and cave painting, because these will be the parts of the presentation that have the most effect on their grade. Students will have time to start typing their narratives on laptops brought in to class (if they desire) otherwise they will have to type the assignment up at home (42 minutes)

Students will be reminded that their narratives must be typed for tomorrow’s presentations and anything that was not finished in class today (cave drawings, narrative, etc.) needs to be completed for tomorrows class. (1 minute)
