Mid Week of the Mystery

Writing time-we got in 30 big minutes creating our mystery stories. Wednesday today, so students should be evaluating where they are on their project. Closer to the end than the beginning is the sweet spot.
Journal time-yesterday we'd pushed back our weekly journal entry, so today we got it done. An advantage today was students were able to use the computer if they so wished.
Testing time-2 of our 5 lists of vocabulary words were tested. Results were ok, but I'd hoped for a little better than that. Some need to be studying.
White Mountains time-we took Will, Henry and Jean Paul into one of the great cities of the ancients. They explored an old Metro tunnel and discovered firearms and hand grenades. Firearms and hand grenades? What's with that?

Homework-
1) Move the mystery writing along if enough has not yet been done
2) Study vocabulary words if necessary, and it seems so for many of these sixers
