Tuesday Oct 9

Someone asked me to post something "extra" for the next unit.

Well, I don't do "Extra". What I do post and work on are simple assignments to introduce the next unit. I call them Webquests.

The one for TKAM is here.


We had a brief introduction to the novel today after we had a welcome back to school conversation. I let my students know that this is the toughest part of the year to get through, as it is fourteen or so weeks of five day a week grind until Christmas.

To get through, I let my students in on some insights from my near twenty years as a teacher: 1) wash your hands a lot 2) Get lots of sleep, drink lots of water and keep a healthy body 3) grab some hand santizer have use it to protect yourself from germs.

After that we worked through the WebQuest posted above.

While students worked through that assignment, I was able to walk through the class and collect the last sections of the Poetry Unit. I also had a few people miss reading poems or doing their Poet presentation. I let everyone know that I will be in the Library after school every day this week in order to help my 1D students make these presentations up.
