Wednesday & Thursday, September 25 & 26th (Day 5 & 6)

COMPUTERS 7 Blue

On Thursday we discussed what students had discovered on "How the Internet Works?"  The students worked on an assignment investigating and comparing four different search engines.  Several students need to complete previous assignments.  Today they had some work time to get caught up.

ELA 8A

The students start each class with ten minutes of silent reading.  They had the rest of the class on Wednesday to work on their story.  Some students have had time to start a second story.  On Thursday we read "Lose Now, Pay Later" and discussed it before having some more writing time.  By the end of class on Wednesday, October 2nd students should have their rough draft finished.

SENIOR FRENCH

The students are working on a Book Trailer video in French. They have made a plan, are finding pictures and will use iMovie to assemble their trailer.

ELA 9A & 9B

The students start each class with ten minutes of silent reading.  Together we followed the steps to write a sonnet:
a) Brainstorm words and ideas related to your topic
b) Find rhyming words for the list of words and topics
c) Think of a theme and start writing
Sonnets must have:
a) 14 lines
b) a rhyme scheme ABAB CDCD EFEF GG
c) 10 syllables in each line
The students now all have a topic on which they are writing and Good Copies will be due at the end of class on Friday.
