Reading HW reminder -- 639-664 by tomorrow. Students finished their claim/evidence wps for Carlson's essay, and then were given the choice to have it scored or to keep it for the info but retain their previous Reading Claim/Evidence score. To explore some social history anecdotes from the Depression a bit more, I showed a 2-min video clip from You tube, shared some family anecdotes, and assigned the students to talk with grandparents, great-grandparents, and so forth for stories of what the family members who lived through the Depression (or other financially tough times) did to save money -- report in on Monday. We then began to read Watkins' essay for E.Q. notes and C.Q.s -- to be continued in class tomorrow.
