SS11: Notes from Thursday, 17 Feb

ATTENTION: I'VE NOT BEEN AS REMISS IN POSTING AS IT WOULD SEEM.  IF YOU CLICK ON THE SS11 LABEL, A BUNCH OF FEB POSTS ARE MISSING, BUT IF YOU JUST OPEN THE BLOG AND SCROLL DOWN THE POSTS, ALL SS11 POST APPEAR - SORRY, I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS: THE BOTTOM LINE IS AT IF A POST APPEARS MISSING, REFRESH THE BLOG AND SCROLL DOWN.

Today we found out that half the class did not do their homework and that meant we couldn't do what was planned; that needs to be completed over the weekend.  Instead, talked briefly about Bren Gun Ronnie, and women in uniform during the war.  We also started reporting on a "jigsaw" activity where each student researched and started reporting on the significant battles of the Second World War.  We will finish sharing our data on Tuesday.

I'm sorry for any confusion about worksheets.  In addition to the sheets due from last day's homework (#9, #10) please ensure you've also completed #13 (which was to be done by the end of Tuesday's class).

The homework from today's class is #8.  We will

Although I said that we would do #12 today, we'll look at it on Tuesday.  We already had some excellent exposure to the Holocaust at Remembrance Day, so we won't be committing as much time to this topic as we normally would do.
