So we made it through the first week of school and have the weekend to take a breath.
I must say that I am pleased overall with what I have seen in class. However, I must warn that this first week my assignments were just a springboard to get the juices flowing again. With each passing week I expect to see improvement in your writing and reading analysis.
Some upcoming assignments, lessons, homework, etc. will be:
**Weekly "SAT Question of the Day" starting the week of August 31st
**SAT Vocabulary words A-D has been issued and will be collected the week of September 7th
**Family Tree Project will be issued the week of August 31st (due around the week of September 14th)
**Test on the Native Americans (short/long response questions) You will be able to use notes.
**Don't forget about the Summer Reading Projects due week of September 28th or anytime before.
You should have your binder with dividers by next week. Dividers should be labeled as follows:
1. Native/Colonial Americans (notes)
2. SAT Vocabulary
3. Misc. (dittos, worksheets)
We will continue reading Native American literature this coming week.
I hope you enjoy the music selections. As we go through the year I will try to find music that connects with what we are studying. If you have any songs that relate to the topic or can be connected in some way please email me the title and artist name.
Take care and see you all next week.

for the family tree what is it that were supposed to do exaxtly?
ReplyDeleteAdriana,
ReplyDeleteI handed out the project sheet in class either on Thursday or Friday. It is not due until the week of September 14th, but if you want to start working on it Part A is writing a short narrative about yourself including such facts as what hospital you were born at, what schools you have attended, any places you have visited outside of Florida, awards won, hobbies or talents. Part B is writing a narrative about a relative of your choice. Both should be typed, preferably. Part C is a family tree chart and map, which I will be handing out this coming week and Part D is to present what you did.
Hope this helps.
