KCC

Writing is due (UNhighlighted to turnitin.com and highlighted in Google Classroom in the last assignment item set up in Classwork).  Chapter 5 notes are due today -- collaborate to build a list of potential themes.  Chapter 6 is due Monday.  We began our in-class work on the new unit -- setting up the "Class Activities EQ Page" for those who want to keep those notes distinct from the textbook notes.  We discussed our way through the "Founder or Not?" slideshow as some thoughts for getting started and then sampled some John Mellencamp songs while doing a folder organization (Current Unit, Class Basics, UCWP/Final Exams, Claim & Evidence, Context & Lens, & Socratic).  Three anchor pieces were distributed -- a map, "The Founders," and a timeline -- we began discussing our way through them aloud together while highlighting select, designated elements and also adding some pen/pencil notes.  If you were absent, see a reliable classmate to get caught up.
