It was great to get back into the classroom to begin 2017 together. The students seemed to have had relaxing and entertaining vacations. We began our morning meeting by having students share with their peers some high points from the completed winter break. The students did a nice job of sharing their memories with each other.
Later in the day, the students turned their attention to a new piece of writing. This performance based assessment will see the students explore zoos during the course of the week. More specifically, whether or not zoos are a positive or a negative. During our work today, students were tasked with pulling supporting details from both a video and an article.
