Social Studies: Please remember to return your signed stub from the classroom expectations form.
So far we have had round table discussions regarding 9-11 and we have discussed some of the many historical photos posted in the back of my classroom.  Turning Points in history are the focus of these conversations/discussions.  All students should have turned in their "Big History/Little History" form in which you explained what you thought one of the 86 historical photos was about.

English: Please remember to return your signed stub from the classroom expectations form.  So far we have used open-ended questions (like a reporter) to get Mr. Ezzard to report out about his life.  Every student has had the opportunity to ask a polite question about Mr. E's life.  I was pleased to see that all students were brave enough to ask a question.  Next we will be writing a passage in class.  Mr. Ezzard will use this as a 'base-line' writing sample.  Give it your best shot so I can see what you are capable of writing.
