Objective 2 - TSW create original sentences in dialogue format with vocabulary aligned with the Essential Question - Can Truth Change

DIRECTIONS: Fill in the dialogue below using ALL of the vocabulary words. Ms. Patty was new to Canyon High School. She was excited about the art class she would teach the ninth graders.

What a great way for the class to get to know each other. The class got underway, and it went really well! At least that’s what Ms. Patty thought. Some others at the school were not so sure.... What did they have to say about Ms. Patty’s project? 1.Mr. Langston, Principal: 2.Ms. Grace, Teacher with classroom next door: 3.Mr. Thompkins, Janitor: 4.Willa Burke, Art student:

Objective 1 A story can differ depending on who tells it. Every person sees things in his or her own way. So, if you ask three witnesses about the same event, you may get three different versions of the truth. Each is a subjective version of the truth. ●credible: believable or trusted ●distort: to explain or report something that is incorrect or untrue ●evidence: a fact, an object, or a sign that convinces you that something is true ●manipulate: to fool people into thinking or acting a certain way ●verify: to find out if something is correct or true

Objective 3 - Complete a story using new vocabulary DIRECTIONS: Continue the story below the line, using each vocabulary word AT LEAST ONCE. “Your bicycle came out of nowhere!” Stuart said. “I was minding my own business and—boom! There you were!” ”Actually,” Carlotta replied, “you ran into the street after your soccer ball without looking. If you had looked, you would have seen me. Now, because of you, I swerved into that fire hydrant and damaged my bicycle. You owe me money for the damage.” Just then, Stuart’s older brother came by and asked, “What happened?”...
