- Before I collected homework, I instructed the students on the correct format of addressing an envelope. They turned the envelope in with the letter. The students were to bring all of their homework to me when they came to the front to give their presentation.
- I introduced the importance of being able to take notes while just listening to a speaker without the benefit of a visual assistant (i.e. power point presentation).
- The groups presented their research to the class. Each student was expected to take notes on every presentation.
- At the conclusion of the presentations, we shifted gears. Students helped me pass back several assignments. We also updated portfolios.
- Homework: Nothing is due next time. Get/bring To Kill a Mockingbird. If you can get it or choose not to purchase it, you will be able to pick one up from the textbook office on Wednesday. Select an Outside Reading book connected to your group by Friday March 4. Continue to work on your service project (there are 7 weeks until the six hours of service are due).
This blog is meant to keep my Composition & Literature students updated on my class. If you forgot what we did in class, or if you were absent, please check in here to find out what happened in class. This will be updated at the end of each class day.
