Spring Fever? You Betcha!

So a reminder for things due for the remainder of this week. Wait, is it bad to talk about the the end of the week when it's only Monday? Oh well.

Tuesday we're going to have a point-building opportunity for everyone in the form of a cumulative open-book Night test.
Wednesday we're going to work on some test prep, specifically the things everyone had difficulty last time we did TPT. Remember STAR testing happens the week we return from break, and I want you all to do well.
Thursday I am reserving for those of you choosing to do performance pieces for your SSR or MySpace pages so we can all look at each other's projects.

Friday-sleep-in-city! Spring Break!

Here were the questions from today...
Answer the following questions in depth and to the best of your ability.

How did you feel about your experience in Socratic seminar? Did you enjoy it? Why or why not? What was the most interesting part of the seminar for you? What was the most frustrating part? What did you learn?

You started the seminar by answering some questions. Your views and opinions may have shifted after your seminar, maybe only slightly, but shifted nonetheless because of the conversation you had in your seminar. . Pick one of the questions on which your opinion has shifted the most dramatically, and re-answer that question. Please be sure to explain how your opinion has shifted and why.

Consider the readings we’ve done for this particular unit: Night, Leon Bass and Wiesel’s dedication speech. Also reflect upon the conversations we’ve had as a class, and the discussions brought up by the seminar. What, if anything, are you taking away from this unit? Honestly now, have you changed your opinions, views or actions? Why or why not?

Hey, Ms. Pina, my url is myspace.com/paigesproject
Just to inform you myspace isn't capable of keeping it in MLA/ paragraph form. It is kind of dumb and annoying.

Sincerely,
Paige
