KCC

"What I Have Learned" metacognitive writing is due today.  Remember to finish your speed-reading homework for tomorrow.  We listened to track #5 from the "Hamilton" soundtrack (new smash Broadway hit!) while viewing some images on the SMARTboard, we listened to the show's writer and lead actor, Lin-Manuel Miranda, perform a poetry slam of what later became the opening number for the show.  Finally, we took NOTES from the introduction the president gave when the show came to the White House to perform a number...in which we get excellent "Context & Lens" on what the show and story represents about who we are -- relevant for the last Unit-Closure Work Page that you'll be getting tomorrow.  The remaining class time was assigned to study the "Global Issues" Unit-Closure Work Page -- master this studying for homework tonight.
