3/18/14

We began class by watching Monday's CNN student news which gave updates on Ukraine and the missing airplane.  As students watched the video I checked last night's homework.

CNN Student News

Next, we had a quick discussion about yesterday's material.

Discussion Question (end of 5th slide)

Next, students began working on a "Jigsaw" activity.  I split the class into 4 groups.  Each group was assigned a different reading about New Hampshire and the mill industry.  Groups first read their article together.  Next, groups answered the questions on the front of their packet. 

For homework, students first need to finish answering the questions on the "Jigsaw" activity.  Next, they need to take the questions and the answers they provided and combine them into teaching statements that they will use tomorrow to teach their classmates.  The teaching statements do not only provide an answer to the question, but re-states the question to the information makes sense. 

If students missed class on Tuesday they should choose the read 3 or 4 which correspond with questions for group 3 or 4.  They must read the passage, answer the questions, and combine the questions and answers into statements as described above.
