November 15, 2013

I'm not here today, but this is what the day should look like.  

Period 1—AP 30
They want some class time to work on their annotations, so this is what they will be working on today.

Period 2—ELA A 30
They have their “Most Admirable Person of All Time” assignment and they are booked into the North Computer lab.  They only have one more class after this to work on it before they start presenting their speeches.  The speeches have to be 2.5 minutes long, so what they say needs to be fairly substantial 

Period 3—ELA A30
For the second part of the double, yesterday, we started in on a Reading Assessment that they can continue with.  I'm not sure if they will finish this or not, but they can continue and push to be done.   

Period 4—AP 10
We are on Act V, scene v of Macbeth…the “tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow” speech to be exact. If you get finished before the end of class, I trust that there are lots of things about the play Mrs. Adelman would like to share with the kids.

Period 5—History 10

We started a PBL I made up yesterday on the English Civil War and Glorious Revolution.  They are just doing some research on Henry the VIII, his wives, and the role of religion in England.  They have about 15-20 minutes to finish their research.  Once they have done that, they have the formative assessment sheet and a sticky note where they will answer a question that sums up some of their research.  They’ll have to come back to the room to post their sticky notes on the back wall.  For the remainder of the period, the students will create a Bitstrips avatar and do the Introduce Yourself activity for our Bitstrips class.  We will be using Bitstrips to do some of our formative assessment after our disclosures.
