Bintaro Lama Videos/Slideshows-Last Day

Journal entry-15 minutes was spent writing in students' private journals. An interesting question was posed for a possible entry, "What profession might you choose that your parents would be very proud of you for doing?" Also the opposite was explored, "What profession might you take up that would cause your parents to be disappointed?" Of course these are private journals, so the answers to the questions remain a mystery. (Marrello only)
The Outsiders-we found 20 minutes to revisit an old favorite. Ms. Swarzkopf gave us her usual fine oral rendition of this favorite, yet now old, novel. (Marrello only)
Water treatment writings-last night's homework assignment was explored, questions asked of those who had not yet completed their work, and showing fine examples of people who had. (Marrello only)
Finish editing video-students were given the full 90 minutes in the computer labs to finish editing and finalizing their project video or slideshow taken at the Kampung Bintaro. Many of these pieces will be published on student blogs. They have worked intensely for two days and it will be gratifying to see what they've accomplished. (Hughes only)

Homework-prepare a blog post with the questions from the Geoactive book, page 227. The questions are all that is necessary. We will cover the content in class, then adjourn to the lab to fill in the answers.
