Students set their mind maps out at the start of the block, and were able to do a gallery walk. Everyone worked hard on these pieces - lots of different strengths were obvious across the work - Well done!
We shifted modes entirely and began work with simple and compound sentences. students should have pages 26-30 of the package complete for Monday (really, just the last exercise may have a few left to do - we did the rest in class). Students also viewed "Conjunction Junction" just for kicks :)
Students went over our new unit - we are looking at the overarching question: If Rome was the most powerful civilization in ancient times, why did it fall?
Students received a package on the Roman Empire - there are questions on pages 3 and 4 of the package that relate to pages 9-12 of the text. Anyone who needed more time to complete the questions (all of Humanities A) took pictures of the pages so they can do the questions at home.
Students are absolutely welcome to take the weekend off and just pop in to complete these pieces during Monday's tutorial.
Congratulations on all the hard work!
