Wednesday, November 14

ELA - Attached are the templates for School Journal entries from Monday and Tuesday. Today students were given time to read or take AR quizzes we then worked on Grammar with lessons 3.1 What is a Pronoun?, 3.2 Subject Pronouns, and 3.3 Object Pronouns. Each lesson was presented and then students were given the opportunity to work on the independent practice before the next lesson was presented. Students are always welcome at lunch if they are struggling with any concept. Homework: Finish Grammar packet, Journal entry #13, Vocab Definitions due, Reader's Journal due.

Spanish I: Study for the quiz 1.3 (part 1) on Friday. Final draft of the commercial skit is due by tomorrow.

Science: Continued working on Investigation 2-B, analyzing how speed on the track changes over time. Quiz on Newton's 1st and 2nd laws Tuesday, November 20.

Geometry: Went over the 4.6 homework and showed examples of why SSA (or donkey's) don't work. Completed the 4.7 notes (isosceles and equilateral triangles). 4.7 worksheet is homework. Chapter 4 test is Tuesday, November 20.

Pre-Algebra: We worked on our last section of Chapter 3 - solving 2 step inequalities. The students voted to have their Chapter test on Monday. Homework today: Inequality solving (evens only)

Algebra: We took our Chapter test today. We are flipping the classroom tomorrow. Students received the notes to do at home and we will do the homework in class tomorrow. This intro lesson lends itself to this teaching strategy because of the vocabulary and their prior knowledge that is used in this lesson. Students should be prepared to explain the meaning of the vocab words and explain the examples. Their textbook will be a great resource for the completion of the notes

Humanities: 4.1 section assessment and current events are due tomorrow.

Course 3:  Quiz tomorrow.
