Block D (1-4) Socials 10

We started in on Chapter 6 in Horizons today. Some of you used the time to finish off your train and your caboose paragraphs.

FOR NEXT CLASS: Complete the notes for pages 208-213 & 213-216. Answer questions 1 & 2 on pg 213 and questions 1, 2, & 4 on pg 216.

Block C (1-3) English 11

Please see Miss Brown's blog.

Block B (1-2) English 9

We started with a short map reading/instruction following activity. (It was Matt, by the way.)

You then had the class to create a set of directional instructions for a blindfolded newcomer to find their way through your Day 1 travel routine. Good copies of the directions are due at the beginning of Tuesday's class.

FOR NEXT CLASS: Be prepared to write the central bulk of your Epic Journey story. This will include the trip to your destination and your activities during the journey. In short, FROM the moment you step out the door UNTIL you start home but NOT INCLUDING your journey home.
