Hey gang.

Sorry I couldn't be here today. Here is what I need you to work on in the MMC.

1 - Make sure that you have sent me the email from you school Google account. You can access this site through the student portal.
2 - Make sure you have printed out a finished copy of your 9-11 RAFT.
3 - Staple the Rubric, rough copy, and final copy together and turn in to Mrs. Groft.
4 - Make sure you have saved AND submitted a copy of your final copy on the Discovery Education site.

IF YOU FINISH ALL OF THIS...
1 - Take the 50 States Test (link on my website) three times.
2 - Go to the World Book Online - Student Version (link on my website and/or the student portal). Search Japan, South Korea, and North Korea. Each of these will have a separate page with information. Read through the section titled "Way of Life".

Please make sure that you are patient with World Book Online and don't quit if something becomes a little difficult. Reading through that section should take about 15-20 minutes.

 3 - Play the Traveler IQ game.

Here is the link for the documentary that we watched in class. Remember, this is a 12 part series. You will have to switch videos as each ends. The link is only for the first of the twelve videos. Enjoy. P.S. There is some salty language and graphic images in the videos.

My Culture Poster Project

Hey gang. Just a reminder...You should be working on your poster project over the weekend. Remember that you need to find 2 pictures for each of the elements of culture (total 16 pictures). You also need to write a paragraph explaining each element (total 8 paragraphs). Also remember that this project is about YOU! All of your pictures and writing should be about you and your culture. Remember that we will have time in class on Monday to work on our posters, however you should not wait until Monday to start working. You should be doing work over the weekend so lighten your load on Monday. My recommendation is to get all of your pictures ready over the weekend at the very least, and concentrate on the writing in class on Monday. Or...you can get the entire project finished over the weekend!! This is your first graded assignment, lets get started off the right way! If you have any questions, feel free to email me.
