2/6/2014- Test: Fiction v. Nonfiction

Today out "I can" statement was: I can compare fictional and nonfictional accounts of a time period or event.

Part 1- Pocahontas

Today we compared the nonfiction account of Pocahontas and John Smith to Disney's Pocahontas. We watched from min 57 to the end of the movie.

You can find the film on Netflix. You can also come in during FLEX on Tuesday (2/11) and make up the film portion of the test.

As you watch the film, look for differences between the film and the nonfiction text we read on Wednesday. Next, brainstorm reasons why the authors of the movie would choose to make the changes they did.
