Hi, Grade 5 students!  Each week complete one lesson.  Choose your lesson below.

Lesson 1
Lesson 2 Lesson 3 Lesson 4 Lesson 5

Lesson 3:  Chapter 2:  In this lesson, Gilgamesh and Enkidu journey to the Cedar Forest which is guarded by the dreaded monster Humbaba.

Meditation:  We begin every session with a check in and meditation.  The brief meditation allows us to bring focus to the work we will do together and creates a calmness that makes learning easier.

Physical Warm-up:  Routine is critical to successful lessons, and since our lessons are centered around acting, we start by engaging our body from head to toe.

Vocal Warm-up:  Furthering our routine as actors, we engage the voice with the goal of speaking clearly and distinctly.  This is so important as we prepare for our oral reading fluency work.

Gilgamesh - Chapter 2:  Each Play In A Book title is a five chapter story with a corresponding five act play.  Located in the reader, each act of the five act play brings to life the ancient Mesopotamian story of Gilgamesh.  Working with scripts presents the perfect opportunity to engage in repeated readings, a critical step in supporting oral reading fluency.
