CNN Students
Students were very interested in what is manslaughter, how many doctors did Michael Jackson have and what is a fair/reasonable punishment for a accidentally killing someone. There was a piece on the presidential reelection being 364 days away and how President Obama was already doing reelection things while the Republicans continue to the process of selecting someone to oppose him. Italy may be in more debt than Greece? This is leading to social unrest. Thailand continues to be plagued by massive flooding. Finally they showed an everyday hero that is making fresh homemade pasta for hungry children.
DEAR time and complete the Heritage project
Language Arts time -- we completed the Katie’s Trunk story in class. We had discussion about the “sorta” civil war that occurred between colonists and Tories.
We then discussed how to most effectively complete open--ended questions using the word “because.” Students then worked with three different partners to work on the six questions at the end of the chapter.
Homework: complete the six questions found on page 304 of the large Language Arts book.
Science rotation
Math time -- more fraction fun with equivalent fractions
Students that actively took notes were able to complete much of tonight’s homework.
Here are our notes.
You can also access all of the Khan Academy movies having to do with fractions right here.
U.A. rotation -- students were disrespectful to a student and to Mrs. Cargo. Apology letters could be forthcoming depending on their behavior during Thursday’s rotation.
Art Night is on Thursday evening from 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
