Miss Turner’s Distance Learning Assignments May 18-22

Hi. We are reading Rikki-tikki-tavi this week. It is a story written by the same author that wrote the Jungle Book that Disney made into a famous animated and live action film. As you read the story located in the Streaming Section of your Literature Google Classroom, you will need to take notes and make a prediction list at all the blue squares A-R to answer #4. Looking at all the red circles C-S in the story to locate foreshadowing (hints the author gives to warn you what is about to happen) will help you answer #5. Zoom Meetings will be held at their normally scheduled times of 1:00, 1:30 and 2:00. The meeting information is:
