What is the Meaning Behind Your Name?

On Thursday we read the book Chrysanthemum by Kevin Henkes and talked about the importance behind Chrysanthemum’s name. Students were then given the opportunity to write about the meaning of their name, where their name came from, the history behind their name, etc. On Monday, students will be writing a list of the best experiences they have encountered. This list will help students generate ideas of what to write about in the weeks to come.
