Killing Mr. Griffin

  • What did you create?
    • For this blog I created a picture of a scene from the book that we are reading this quarter, Killing Mr. Griffin by Lois Duncan.  In this book a group of kids decide to kidnap their English teacher because they think he's too mean and they want to teach him a lesson.  But things go too far and he dies.
  • What inspired you to create this?
    • I was inspired to create this because this is the scene I pictured in my mind when I was reading the book. I drew the waterfall and the Mr. Griffin's green car and his dead body.
  • How did you create this?
      • I created this using Microsoft Paint on my computer
    • How does this connect to the unit theme or extend understand of the unit essential question?
      • This connects to the unit theme because it's representative of the book we are reading this unit.
