Friday is finally here!

I was absent yesterday, so the students watched a video on Islam with the sub.

Today we prepared for the World Religions assessment that we will take on Monday!  I helped students prepare for their writing piece that they have to do for the assessment as well, which is a short 3 paragraph, compare/contrast, writing assignment.

Here is what I expect for the writing portion on the test on Monday.  Along with this is an example of what I am looking for in an introduction:

compare contrast 3p essay

Monday will be a closed note test.  It will contain two parts, 1.) 20 multiple choice questions regarding their notes and 2.) 3 paragraph writing piece.  Students can prepare their essays beforehand, but cannot use anything on the test.

Today I also check their notes with all 5 religions and the map.  Here, again, are all the powerpoints for each religion, and the sheet/map for the notes:

Islam

Also, here is the video that sums up all 5 religions very briefly.  We watched it today to review and help for writing the paragraphs:

All Extra Credit will be due on Monday!!
