What we did today
Today, we had a double block of humanities so we started by talking about what we were going to do within 2 weeks before spring break. For example we talked about finishing There Will Be Wolves questions, the novel, and quizzes that we would have before spring break. We also talked about other up-coming things like the diary and the skit that comes with it and portfolio preparation. We also talked about sharing our blogs and portfolios to our parents. After talking about what’s coming up, we reviewed the questions from There Will Be Wolves since we had a quiz about the main topics from chapters 1 to 5 today. We had a break after reviewing chapters 1 to 5 but after we had the quiz. The There Will Be Wolves quiz wasn’t too bad because it was only 10 questions. Five questions were multiple choice and the other half was list the events in order. After the quiz, we had a choice of doing 3 things, work on chapter 10 questions of There Will Be Wolves, notes for our diary entry, or get started on the diary entry. We worked on those 3 things until the double block was over.
Why we did it
We talked about what we were doing within 2 weeks before spring break because Ms. Lees didn’t know when she will be absent again. When we talked about the things that were coming up within 2 weeks it helped everyone since we wanted to know when we were doing and it is always nice to know what is coming up. We reviewed the novel questions because we didn’t know what could be on the test so we thought of maybe the worst and reviewed or refreshed the things that happened in the book. We did the novel quiz because Ms. Lees wanted to know how much we knew about the book. Ms. Lees gave us a choice because she knew that we had different things to do so she gave us an opportunity to work on these pieces of work.
Connections/ reflections
This skill of knowing what’s coming up can help us in the future for planning different things in the future for example for There Will Be Wolves questions. Reviewing what happened in the novel can help for the future for different kinds of up-coming tests. This way of studying could maybe help us in the future for tests that is better to study in this way.
Homework and Tips
For homework there was the Middle Ages notes all finished with bibliography and chapter 10 of There Will Be Wolves questions which is due Friday. There also will be a chapter quiz on Friday so make sure to study for that. For tips I suggest you to study for the quiz.
