9/11/13

At the beginning of class we briefly discussed the 9/11 anniversary the situation in Syria.  We then watched CNN student news which discussed both topics.  I checked student's homework assignment as they watched the video.

Next, students read a passage about mercantilism with a partner.  They discussed the passage as they read, stopping at every * mark to make a comment about the reading. 

After students finished the reading they answered the three reading comprehension questions at the bottom of the page, making sure to re-state the question in their answers.

Mercantilism- "Say Something" and homework questions

At the end of class I assigned each group a country or colony for a simulation tomorrow.  Students made signs for their country or colony to be used in the simulation.

Homework is: finish the three questions at the end of the Mercantilism- "Say Something" reading.
