I Didn't Even Ask

Peak-We got Peak to the departure gate, but learned much about his life prior to his climbing incident in New York City. Now the story is beginning to make clear sense.
Vocabulary review-time was spent going over the vocaulary words on the context of the earthquake and resulting disaster in Haiti. Students are beginning to get them down pretty well.
Notebook writing-students used their knowledge gained this week to write a piece as if they actually were in Haiti. The context could have been a journal entry, a letter to a friend or relative residing outside Haiti, or a news report as if they were a journalist in country covering the story.


Homework-
1) read 20 minutes
2) bring journals to class tomorrow
