Honors: Impressive first day of meetings. Almost every student came to class having completed their task in a well developed fashion. Conversations were mostly fluid and engaging, with many groups having to be cut off before they finished their discussions. Great problem to have.
You need to have your first typed double spaced response in class tomorrow. If you need any help, be sure to checkout the guidelines in the shared Google Doc.
An abbreviated, and thus unsatisfactory, discussion on bias today. We'll have a second, more in-depth/effective look at it tomorrow.
Standard: We also talked about bias a bit today and connected it to APES: author, purpose, evidence, source. It will remain an important concept (along with APES) to consider as we go deeper into our nonfiction reading over the remainder of the school year.
The compare contrast The Ernest Green Story and Warriors Don't Cry Google presentations are coming along. We will have time tomorrow to complete the production and perhaps you will even get your first glance at the competition.
Good luck...or work hard and make your own luck.
