New Semester! Sorry I've been off'-line for awhile.
7th Grade: Finished reading our story on Cuban baseball and discussed characterization. Homework: Write 1/2 page journal about a time you overcame a challenge.
8th Grade: Gerunds are verbs that act as nouns, but end with ING. They go along with participles and progressive verbs. We took notes on Gerund use as a subject and the Object of a preposition. The last half of the class was spent in the lab for History day work.
10th Grade: Gerund notes (see 8th grade). We began our commercial unit today. See Mr. Hawley for a copy of the rules and the timeline.
History: Response to Cartoon 3. If you missed the cartoon, find one of your own, print it out and staple it to the sheet where you describe it. Then we jumped back into notes on the Legislature.
On Thursday, History students will need to have a current event, will take the Preamble test, will have a quiz on Witch of Blackbird Pond chapters 11 - 15, and need to have read through chapter 7, section 2 and 3. Busy day.
