Today's summaries:
English Div 4 and 5: You had a chance to work on your story endings in class; a full block was allotted to writing or typing your first draft. You are to finish that draft by Wednesday. Share the document with Mrs Bridal at gbridal@sd62learns.org. You were assigned a role in the spooky Reader's Theatre performance.
S.S. Div 3: Our inquiry question is: How do we know what is important to study in history? Is the Viking civilization worth studying? I would argue that their superior nautical technology, the Longship, proves that these were a formidable human group. So, to explore their technology you completed a worksheet overview of Viking longships. Then, you were to brainstorm and craft a design for your own group's Viking boat constructed out of: 7 small popsicle sticks, 1 large popsicle stick, 2 finger lengths of duck tape, 2 sticks of hot glue, two straws, a lump of molding clay, and a section of cardstock paper. We will build your designs on Monday. You can find this engineering challenge on the bottom of the Unit 2 page on the SS link.
Sail off into your weekend....
