The Last Week of February Already?

Peak-new informaiton is revealed about Peak's father and Sun Jo's father. What a relationship and tragedy.
Vocabulary review-a quick once over for this week's words, but really most time was spent in the collection of homework revolving around their list of 80 words organized into a spreadsheet. Tomorrow we will manipulate this data, a for real tech skill.
Write letters-instruction was given on how to write an imagined letter from their grandparent to what would be the student's great grand parent. This should include a mix of historical information and family interests.
Library visit with novel reading-Hughes' homeroom missed library book exchange time last week, so today we made a quick trip to replenish reading stocks. It wasn't a long trip, but it was better than none at all.

Homework-
1) submit printed letter from grandparent
2) bring vocabulary excel file
3) bring journals
4) iTunes extra credit try for Everest podcasts

Mr. Hughes,

I think you are getting some spams from anonymous people.

Some posts like End to a 3 day student week, creating the PHP timeline-practical math... etc... have some spams by anonymous people. By the way, where is your word verification?

Mr Hughes,

I missed Monday because I was sick of cough and fever. Where do I write the letter, on the writers notebook, Microsoft Word, or both?
