Freshmen: Today our focus was on Step Two of our Seven Step Essay Process - Collect Information. We talked about how information can be found many places (websites, interviews, surveys, newspapers, magazines, articles, your own experiences and ideas, and so on), and the forms that information takes (statistics, facts, ideas, quotes, anecdotes, and the like). Tomorrow we will meet in the library and learn how to find information about our topic, and you will print and bring these sources to class next block day. By the block day you need to do the following: Have two sources (one from the internet, another being a non-internet print source), and conduct an interview or administer a survey. You can administer the survey during class on the block day if you wish. Keep reading from Speak and work on Membean as well.
Sophomores: Today we focused on the belief system the main character from The Power of One currently ascribes to. You should finish Chapters 1-4 for Friday's class; work on your reactions to each chapter, Echoes, your 3EJ, and Membean.
CNF: Today we wrapped up some discussion about Chapter 5 and began Chapter 6.
