ENGLISH 2
To start the period, I shared a little bit of information I got from the training I was at yesterday. For starters, here is a VIDEO overviewing the success that Everett High School has had with the starting of using their new devices so far. The devices in the video are the same as the ones we will be getting next year. We then broke-down what classes accomplished while I was at my training. Students received their worksheets from identifying the structure of an argument in "An Indian Father's Plea" and were informed that they can finish for a higher grade if they would like to. Students were then informed to discuss which bias(es) they saw most strongly represented in the text from yesterday, discuss those with a partner, and find specific evidence to highlight that bias. It was brought to my attention that not everyone was able to get the notes completed yesterday, so here is the link to those NOTES. Honors Classes: We also started looking these TWO TEXTS concerning bias against elements of higher education. Students were to work together to figure out what aspect was showing bias and prepare to share with their essay group. FRESHMAN LEADERSHIP We over-viewed the information gathered during yesterday's speech researching. I went over the suggestions that I have gathered from some of you as well as others who have done similar assemblies. I am meeting with Principal Woods this week to get approval on the outline we want. After the assembly work, we got to play Santa for some 2nd grade students at Cathcart Elementary School! Ms. McGrath over in Snohomish had her students write letters to Santa, and we will be replying to them. Each student in leadership was given a couple of letters to respond to and instructed to LEGIBLY write a response to the students.
