Yesterday in Mrs. Newlin's English Language Arts classes, students played the "memory mining" game. Students were tasked with mining 3 memory blocks. When they passed the 3 activities, they were given their final boss (exit ticket). This was a fun hands-on learning activity based on the game Minecraft to unlock their memories for their personal narrative topics. By the end of class, they chose a topic for their personal narratives and started a story map.
