Students in Mrs. Ruder’s English I class complete their Writers Notebook sharing thoughts about various “products or items” they might purchase such as AirPods, an Xbox, Movies, or even going to a local Haunted House. They also analyzed how the author wrote about the various products. One student wrote about AirPods and indicated they sounded better and were more comfortable than wired headphones. The activity allowed students to connect to their everyday lives.
