April 19

Due to several requests for an extension, I postponed today's Moses chapter 3 test until next day (Thursday). Please be sure to use the guided notes I gave you.

I gave you the project and group assignments for the Exodus CE project. You have calendars with pertinent information on them, including the project due date. Please be sure to divide the work fairly, and don't let your group down. Group leaders will report to me.

I returned your SS tests (China) and let you know about the upcoming project. You'll choose your Renaissance person to research next class.

Be prepared to start our poetry unit next class. Also continue to bring your silent reading book to all blocks.
