This week we will be working on comparing and contrasting as a way to evaluate different medias for presenting information. The topics we will be exploring are The Civil Rights Movement, The Underground Railroad, and The Holocaust ( students not on field trip) or Anne Frank ( students on field trip). From this we will be making claims and supporting it with evidence and reasons.
Reminder the field trip is this Thursday from 9- 1pm. Students attending need to dress for going out to a play. Thinks of it as going out somewhere nice. Please remember dress should follow the district dress code when choosing your nice outfit. Cell- phones aren’t permitted on the trip. Students will also need to bring their own lunch that day to eat when we return as the cafeteria will be closed.
Students not going will be reporting to Mrs. Mualem when we leave. There they will be completing an alternate assignment so that they can also compare/contrast, evaluate, and make claims with evidence and reasons.
Homework is to read and earn at least 100 points on readtheory.
Finally the end of the marking is approaching next Friday. Students need to have their exit tickets completed by Monday, 13th. Book talks will be done by Wednesday, March 15th.
