Tuesday 5/6

Students worked with one another with the overview sheet in front of them talking through what the expectations were and working out different understandings. An example of prewriting work was shown--Thanks Tatum and Logan! They then were asked to talk about how they envisioned their presentation would look.  The goal was to push each other to be creative yet logical in their presentations.  Logs will be collected on Friday 150 minutes.

Afternoon classes here are your directions for class.
