Wednesday, February 10

History 30/ELA A30: We missed our first period due to the Ash Wednesday Mass. Current Event. Handed in the Fur Trade WebQuest assignment. Read the poem "Between Two Furious Oceans" and discussed. Read through the handout on "Forces Promoting Colonization" and discussed. Gave the definition for "constitution" - we'll discuss tomorrow. Remember that Section 2 of The Book of Negroes is due on Friday.

Drama 20: Reviewed what we learned last class about posture. Tried walking with different types of postures (marionette, character). Played the "Sit, Lie, Stand" improv game to practice posture. Started looking at Breath Control with some breathing exercises.

ELA 20: Continued working on your childhood memories poems. Tomorrow will be your last class to finish it.

ELA B10: Introduced The Hunger Games novel study.  You are reading the novel independently at your own pace - it must be read (completely) by the time we get back from Easter break - Monday, April 4th. We also discussed the Fictionalized Journal assignment that you will do as you read the novel - it will be due soon after April 4th (we will decide on a date later). We will do other activities with the novel as well in April. The rest of the period was either reading time or work time for the punctuation booklet. Tomorrow we will continue with the punctuation booklet.
