Socials 9
Today I collected your Vocabulary Assignments, and we went over the Appalachian section of your Regions Chart.
We then looked at the Coastal Plains region and watched a short video on Hurricane Katrina. The rest of the class was spent working on the assignment, in which you were asked to look at different perspectives on the destruction of New Orleans after the hurricane.
If you were not in class today please use your textbook to fill out the Coastal Plains region row on your chart.
Next class you will have more time to finish the assignment.
There was no homework. The next time we will have class for Block G will be Friday because of McRoberts Day. Have a great week!
English 8
Today we discussed Chapter 8 and 9 in class in small groups and reflected on some changes that are taking place in Anthem.
I then handed back your Essay Outlines and went over the key areas of concern for when writing your first drafts.
Journal Entry #4 is for homework:
Explain the significance of the changes in character, mood, tone, language and setting from the beginning of the novel to the end. How do these changes relate to the overall message of the novel?
Think about YOURSELF over the past year. Describe and explain a significant change in yourself. How does this make you feel?
For the remaining vocabulary, please choose TWO WORDS ONLY from each chapter (7-12). The next vocab chart installment is not due until next week.
See you all Friday and have a great McRoberts Day!
