After completing a rough draft paragraph that focused on creating main points that are backed up by textual evidence, students had their peers review and edit their paragraphs, and then they wrote a final draft as partners and turned it in to me for final grading.
Today we reviewed Cornell Notes (yayyyy!!!) and learned the importance behind them. After, everyone signed up on Newsela and then read an article about the 85 richest people in the world owning half the world's wealth and took Cornell Notes as a partner. HOMEWORK: Complete Cornell Notes and take the quiz on Newsela!
PACK DAY!!! Hopefully you all took this opportunity to catch up on homework and study!
At the beginning of class we got to hear from the counselors here at TuHS. They gave a lot of good information about graduation requirements and help you can receive from the counselors. After, students turned in the WOD worksheet and then took the WOD quiz.
In class we had a visit from the Dean of Students, had a gallery walk after with all of the impressive higher education banners, and then reviewed for the Word of the Day quiz next class!
Today I introduced the Higher Education Banners and gave students the rest of the period to finish their Naviance assessment and then begin working on the banner. Higher Education Banners are due at the beginning of next class!
The Word of the Day today was "Habit". The class was introduced to Naviance, and then everyone took the Career Interest Profiler Survey and explored possible careers and then colleges.
In class today the Word of the Day was "Support Systems", and then we spent the rest of the time finishing Brown Bag Presentations. Everyone did such a great job! Thank you!
Hello class! Today we had a visit from the Dean of Students and learned about what his role is at TuHS and how he is a great resource for you. After, we began the Brown Bag Presentations! If you did not present today, you're presenting next class!
We had our first visit from the Pack Leaders today! I introduced the Brown Bag Presentation that is due next class and then the remainder of class was spent observing a Pack Day.
