Friday, August 27

Students took a quiz on Section 3 of "Night."

Also, we returned the quizzes from yesterday. Most students did terrible on these. I don't know why, because we gave you the resources and the motivation to do the reading. This includes:
*background on the Holocaust, World War II, and Judaism
*20 of the most difficult vocabulary from the book
*an offer to give you .mp3's of the book's audio recording
*a website that gives you section summaries and help
*time IN CLASS to read

Students have all the tools they need for success. The teachers have done their part, and now students need to do the work.

Finally, we went to the computer lab to research about Holocaust survivors. Each student researched a Holocaust survivor and wrote poetry about the Holocaust survivor. If you are absent today, make sure to make up the work!!
