Honors: Great work on the presentations today. Lots of progress was made by most of the groups.
Per our discussion, you will be spending 20-30 minutes individually on the presentation tonight. In return, I'll give you 20 minutes of class time to discuss and organize the information. You will then have 24 hours to sharpen and hone the presentation for Friday. Can't wait to see what you have.
In addition, you should finish reading the book Warriors Don't Cry tonight. There will be a quick reading quiz tomorrow followed by a writing and a bit of discussion before I set you free to work on your presentations.
Standard: Some decent support and discussion on whether or not Melba should be trusting Link. Good points were made on both sides; however, it seemed like the Trust Link Side had more hard evidence. Can't underestimate the power of evidence.
We looked at some ISTEP prep questions today covering things like claim, supporting evidence, summary and the use of context clues. ISTEP starts in 20 days.
Tonight you should read chapter 17 pages 194-204 in Warriors Don't Cry. Don't forget to keep text coding. Maybe I'll check for a grade tomorrow.
