In Mrs. Ridlehoover's and Mrs. Krodman's social studies class, we used a graphic organizer that frames information given in text format. Students were paired to read the section entitled Imperial Russia and decided with their partners which were the important details in the section. The assignment is to complete the framing strategy with the details from the reading.
Additionally, on Monday, you are to bring a pocket folder, the WebQuest contract and any information you print from the WebQuest listed on Mrs. Ridlehoover's blog.

Today, we read an interesting piece about inventions that missed the boat. Some things sound better than they actually are. One thing we read and spoke about briefly was invention contraptions made by Rube Goldberg. These inventions are complicated structures that do simple things.
Your homework is to answer the questions on page 20 of your textbook that follow the story. Also, for extra credit, you can investigate the Rube Goldberg website and print off one of his inventions.
