I just addes a link to our GVMS Library website that has a tremedous amount of resources to assist us in our research projects. Feel free to visit the "Resources" page to find the link! Thank you to our lovely Librarian, Mrs. Zilch who has offered to come and speak to our class about eLibrary and MLA formatting! She is much appreciated!
We are moving right along on our argumentative writing piece. I was very pleased with our guest speakers and the level of questions the students wrote. The students were very professional when asking questions and taking notes. Towards the end of the presentation Jalin asked an amazing question, "What happens if you do not have the support at home to create an effective learning environment?" Very intuitive and wise question.
The majority of our students have not yet finished typing their intro paragraph, which needs to be done ASAP. I'd like to have the intro and BP #1 typed by the end of Tuesday's class. I am not sure if that is going to happen but I am hoping for the best. This Thursday Mrs. Zilch will visit our class to give a presentation on the new link I added to our website. I m looking forward to her wealth of info. Just so you know class, I will not be here Wednesday, October 29, as I will be at the district office for a curriculum writing meeting. I expect stellar behavior, as usual. |
