Thursday, 11/13

Agenda
1) Warmup:
If you could travel into the future or the past, and you could ask one question to anyone, who would you ask and what would the question be?
2) 20 Questions

Homework
None

The narrative unit is now over, and we are beginning the research unit. In today's class we had a bit of fun as a reward for the kids hard work on their essay. We played 20 questions, which is a deceptively educational activity for learning logic and also for asking questions, which will be an important part of the research unit's main project, the feature article.

There will be no homework for the rest of the week so that students who did not turn in their essay on time will have the maximum chance to do so.
