High School Language Arts looked at Howard Zinn and his belief in rewriting history to show both sides of the story...students started with their opinion and then looked at the article to try and support their beliefs. It was great to see students look at documents to find their evidence. Hopefully this document encouraged open-thinking even if they didn't agree with Zinn.
Students also were reminded that they have their novel test for their books on Thursday, the 25th.
I did give the students a few minutes to catch up on their reading but students should be doing focused reading time in order to finish their books on time.
Psychology looked at the various careers that are involved in the topics we are going to be covering. Numerous students did not have it done so I reminded them to have it done on Monday. WINGS has been updated so you can check to see if your student has this assignment completed.
Students were reminded that they have a TEST on Monday over Chapter One.
I gave them an in-class pretest to give them an idea of what the test will look like! Students should do their online self-check quiz as well as make sure they are able to complete the Chapter Assessment in their textbook. They will turn in the online test to me on Monday!
