10-8 Happenings

Today we tallied the Packer Contest results and checked for supplies and reading material. I explained the Blog Log (but have not yet handed out the assignment) and reviewed Part 1 of Dead Poets' Society. I set up Part 2 of Dead Poets' Society. We watched Segment 1 of Part 2 and students paired-and-shared Questions 22-33. We reviewed each question and discussed the YAWP scene and other parts of Segment 1. I set up Segment 2. After Segment 2, we again paired-and-shared Questions 34-56. We reviewed each question and discussed parts of Segment 2. We finished with RIF for 5-10 minutes.
