WNB: Article of the Week - "Having Your Smartphone Nearby Takes a Toll on Your Thinking" - students read, annotated, and responded to the article.
I reminded students that they should read a book from the AP list this 9 weeks. The list is available in the About section on Classroom.
As an introduction to Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, we held a "Friendship Summit." Students worked in groups to create a list of the 10 qualities of a good friend. Each group then sent one representative to meet with others to combine their lists and come up with a final list of 10 qualities. Students repeated the process with a list of 5 qualities of a bad friend. We'll look for all of these traits as we read the play over the next two weeks.
