Weekly Update
Week of 3/14
Classroom Overview
History- We have begun the new unit on the Cold War. We have lots of work to do!
English: The class has now finished reading the novel, "Night" and did an excellent job with the overall comprehension & analysis of the content presented in this unit. We will continue to complete a few follow-up activities now that we have finished the book completely. We will work on tasks such as symbolism, theme, various writing prompts, Socratic discussion groups and individual projects. I am very impressed by the students engagement and interest in this novel/unit. Well done!!
Academic Literacy: The class will be taking a quiz on the story, "My Partisan Life Has Begun." The quiz will cover the vocabulary terms and basic comprehension from the story itself.
Science: We are now working on the Ecology unit. Students will be doing various activities while we cover this unit!
