9/3/13

We began class with a review activity.  Students responded terms and questions on posters around the room.  We then discussed their responses to the prompts.

Next, students chose partners.  With their partners they read through an account of Columbus's voyage.

Reading A

After reading the selection they answered questions 1-3 on the Fact vs. Bias- Columbus sheet in the space labeled "A" on their sheets.

Fact vs. Bias- Christopher Columbus

Next, students read the second account of Columbus's voyage labeled "B."

Reading B

They then answered the same three questions on their sheets according to the second reading in the space labeled "B."

We then discussed their responses as a class.

At the end of class students worked on their homework assignment, the last four questions on the "Fact vs. Bias" sheet.

Homework is to answer the homework questions on the "Fact vs. Bias- Christopher Columbus" sheet using complete sentences.
