Thursday August 12

We accomplished three things in class today:

1) Students finished presenting their introductory PowerPoints. Each student had designed a PowerPoint to introduce themselves to the class, talking about their hobbies, family, culture, and future goals. We presented some of them yesterday, and the remainder presented today.

All students who have not presented have earned a 0.

2)We did our "English Daily Log" activity. This activity is a combination of grammar, vocabulary, and journal writing. Today's journal was on the topic of stereotypes.

3)We watched a short video clip about stereotypes and discussed how stereotyping affects modern life. I think this is an important issue, since we are living in a culturally diverse area and time period. Also, because this class is World Literature, we will be reading about all different cultures.

It was another great day!
