Tuesday, Oct. 1st and Wednesday, Oct. 2, 2019 - a/b block

10/1/2019

 
Picture
Students from my B4 class do individual research on their line of latitude.
Picture
A team in my 1st period with the same line research constructing their own information, comparing their findings and synthesizing them to a group poster.
Today, in class, we:

Entered the classroom using the "Threshold" protocol, with each student having to provide a "Stand and Deliver" entry ticket. 
Answered the warm up question on the board.
Copied our home work from the home work board (see below).
Random students were chosen by the Kagan Spinner to answer the warm up question.
Collected, via the random robot technique any late home work.
Glued in the 15 World Regions Map (Notes 1.8) to page 40. Everyone was reminded to study this for the test next class (see previous post).
Returned and discussed the Unit 1 Vocabulary Test.
Handed out HW 6 - Test Whys and explained how to use this to reflect on the test (see below).
Updated the Table of Contents (see below).
Participated in an inquiry lesson to discern the importance of 4 major lines of latitude (see picture).
Collected, by individual interview, the late maps for the Journey Home project (see previous post).

Home Work: 1) Complete HW 6 Test Whys using your returned test (see below).
2) Study for the 15 World Regions Location Test next class. See your map on page 40.
Note the last day to turn work in to the Homework Portfolio is Friday, Oct. 4th.
