10-2 Happenings

Today we checked supplies and reviewed the Packer Contest. I collected any extra Dead Poets' Society permission slips. (We begin watching the movie on Thursday.) I also handed out an informational sheet about LRT (Green) from Open House (students should share this sheet with their parents). We discussed the upcoming Camp Ihduhapi field trip. Students discussed and blogged about the results of the Parent Persuasive Speech. I collected the Parent Persuasive Speech assignment. I handed back the Communication Test and we answered any questions after reviewing it. We checked the three Fear Case Studies and students had a few minutes to go over the questions with their pair-and-share partner. We then reviewed and discussed the important fear concepts in each of the case studies. I explained the Personal Fear Inventory assignment and students finished the block with RIF.
