Veteran's Day



Hey guys I am sorry I am not there today. Lily is sick. I hope you are all behaving for our substitute. She will be leaving me a note on how well you treated her, and each other. I am sure you have all been on your best behavior. You are all great students. :)


For Social Studies today I want you to get in small groups of no more than 3. Since tomorrow is Veteran's day I wanted to make sure you knew why you got the day off school, and why you should take a moment to appreciate soldiers and veterans.
I want you to click on first site, then click on VA History "more..." Read the information, then write a short summary of the events. It should only be about one long paragraph. I only need one from each group, just make sure everyone participates. After you finish, choose another section from the first site or the second, and make a display, or writing a summary to share based on the information you found. You may also use the links to find more information. Mrs. Bias may have some small poster board left, but I want you to ask before you leave. Please let Mrs. Bias know that I will replace anything you use of hers. You are also welcome to the construction paper in our room. Your presentation can also be made on movie maker or power point. I will be expecting your work on Wednesday, so you may need to split up the work and each person in your group do one section if you run out of time today. I may give you more time on Wednesday to work on it before you present it to the class. If you finish you may play the games section. Also, please do not forget about your interview. I will be checking my e-mail, and the comments from this blog throughout the day. If you have any questions please write me. marsha43@gmail.com
