« October 30-November 3 | Main | IMPORTANT NOTE »

WOW! Students have worked diligently in the last six weeks to conduct research and produce intelligently written essays, study tremendous amounts of information for finals and create gorgeous Japan scrapbooks that have left me speechless. What a brilliant group of agents!
Friday we began our study of CHINA in the MAC lab where students are paired to create INSPIRATION webs as they notetake. This software program allow students to add clip art, pictures,notes,links, and WORD Art while creating their own beautiful web,then with the click of a mouse, the information turns into outline form for study. Cool, eh?
MONDAY, WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY we'll be in the lab working on this project.
TUESDAY is not only ELECTION DAY, but a day off for students as teachers have a staff development day.
MONDAY AND WEDNESDAY HOMEWORK: Students will begin review of the CHINA chapter by completing the CHAPTER REVIEW
FRIDAY: The scrapbook grades include a presentation grade and we will work through the week student by student to make a couple of presentations daily. We'll finish the presentations today and students will have the opportunity for peer review on their classmates' work.
All scrapbooks will have been graded by then, but I would like to display them at school for a while before sending them home.
