Reading: We are studying the story elements of a fiction text for the next 4 weeks. Read the story Blackbeard and the Monsters of the Deep and think about the Characters (WHO is in the story), Setting (WHERE the story takes place), and Plot (WHAT is happening in the story).
Please read through the story Blackbeard and the Monsters of the Deep on pages 155-185. After reading, students should complete the workbook pages 186-198.

This is A LOT of reading and workbook pages, so I am giving students 2 weeks to complete the story and pages. The story is divided into chapters, so reading a chapter each night will allow you to complete the story on time.

Story:  Blackbeard and the Monsters of the Deep on pages 155-185
Workbook: pages 186-198
