Today in 6A!

RELIGION: Today was a review session for tomorrow's open-book test on Passover and the Eucharist.

ENGLISH: Today was all about drilling our vocabulary terms. We began with flashcards, demanding the definitions for given words. The we did a rapid-paced quiz to practice the terms. Finally, I read sentences aloud to the class and requested they fill in the blanks with the appropriate vocabulary term. This series of exercises helps students experience the usage of their terms in different contexts.

LITERATURE: To wrap up our short story "Stray", students were asked to develop a poster to help locate a missing pet. After students made their posters and submitted them, we showed a few and judged whether, based on the design, it would be likely or unlikely that this sign would help locate the missing pet.

SOCIAL STUDIES: Students were given their assignment that will span the next several classes. Students chose a Sumerian God to research. They will create a slideshow presentation that illustrates the significance of that God within Sumerian culture. the details of this assignment are posted on Google Classroom, where students will submit their slides prior to the start of Monday. They will have class time tomorrow to work on their research/presentation, but what is not completed in class, will be weekend homework.
