Tomorrow is Acuity 3rd quarter pretest day. All classes will be taking the test--on the Discovery mobile lab I understand. We'll take our time, answer the best we can, and get a feel for what we ned to be focusing on during the third quarter.
The substitute gave you a great report yesterday. Thanks for dedicating yourself to the assignment I left behind. So far, I've been pretty impressed with what you produced from the four prompt questions. The effort there and your reading last night, helped to generate some decent discussion over the text today. During our fishbowl activity both classes were slow to get started but eventually the discussion became more engaging. Still some work to do on how to consistently engage in a discussion and not just share a thought with no rebuttal or comment to what was previously said.
If time permits after our Acuity testing, we will take a close look at a short story called "The Harmonica". The topic will be familiar and I'll be asking you to make some comparisons.
Be sure to finish actively reading Night (highlighting and annotating) (pages 104-116) for Monday. While our reading will then be completed, we will still have some activities to complete before moving onto a fiction friendly third quarter. Third quarter starts Wednesday. See you tomorrow.
