Tuesday, 12/2

In Class:

  • Class will divide into groups of 3 or 4 (minimum 5 groups; maximum 8 groups).
    • Each group will receive a mini whiteboard and a dry erase marker.
    • To start, I will randomly select a student (using ClassDojo) to choose the category and point amount.
    • We look at the “answer”, and each team then has to quietly discuss, agree upon, and write the “question” on their whiteboard.
    • After 15-30 seconds, you will hold the whiteboards up in the air. Every team with the correct answer gets the points. Every team with an incorrect answer loses points.
    • Extra credit points for tomorrow’s test will be added as follows:
      • 2000 points and up = 5 points
      • 1000 to 1990 = 4 points
      • 410 points to 990 = 3 points
      • 210 points to 400 points = 2 points
      • 50 to 200 points = 1 point

At Home:

  • STUDY Gilgamesh Movie Notes, Flood Crosswords (Genesis and Ovid; Gilgamesh and Noah Movie), Noah Movie Notes, and today’s compare/contrast grid for Test tomorrow.
