Enriched 12-10-2012

I do wish we had block scheduling back at Discovery.  There's just too much to do in too little time.  We were rushed again today, so we didn't tackle everything I had hoped we would.  Nevertheless, we will endure and succeed.

Tomorrow be ready for the verbals quiz.  We will take it as soon as we enter class.  It shouldn't take too long...if you're prepared.

We will follow that up with our scheduled QBTs.  Check past blogs to see who's on board tomorrow.

After that we'll have about a half hour left.  We'll spend some of the time answering any paper questions.  Remember, the paper is due to me no later than 12-14-12.  That's Friday for those without a calendar handy.  I also want to spend some of that time working on the themes you developed for the first Night reading.  Block scheduling is looking better and better.

For Wednesday, you need to read pages 29-46 actively.  That means you should highlight and annotate the reading.  While reading I want you to identify two passages/quotes from the reading that resonate with you for whatever reason.  Type them up and cite them.  Under each one, be sure to type a paragraph that explains the quote, it's significance to the text, and why you selected it.

Remember to hand in your Acuity form tomorrow.  You'll be taking the test no matter what this Thursday and Friday.  The form just allows your results to be sent into the Acuity people to judge the effectiveness of the test.

See you tomorrow.
