We started class with 15 minutes of independent reading time. Students were encouraged to keep an eye out for new and interesting words to add as their Writer's Notebook entry today.

We revisited our discussion from yesterday about philosophy and dug into our deep questions. On a notecard and Google Form, students shared questions anonymously that give them pause. These questions will show up again!
