I'm setting aside what I'd originally planned for today, because this idea is too important not to give priority; I'm stealing it from a post that Sylvia Curry shared on Facebook. About 50-60 years from now your grandchildren will call you up (or teleport?) or maybe they'll be incredible and stop in for a visit and bring you a latte or vanilla Coke or some new magical water...anywho, and they'll want to ask you about the pandemic of 2020 that you endured as a teenager. They'll want to record you talking about it or take notes for a school project. Even just 20-30 years from now your own kids will ask you what it was like. YOU will be a primary source; you can give a first-person account of history from your individual perspective. Granted, a primary source is exactly that -- one perspective, and so, it doesn't tell the whole story. It does, however, tell a piece of the story, and that has a valuable place in the larger narrative! To that end, I've set up a journal entry assignment in Google Classroom, and today I want you to get started by remembering back to Tuesday, 3/17, when you were on your first day at home due to the school shut-down in Illinois, and record what you can remember from that first week and then the second week ("spring break"). After that it will be easy to do a quick end-of-day recap each day moving forward. So, tomorrow there will be a new assignment posted here relating to Global Issues at the turn of the 20th century to go along with just a 1-day (3/31) journal entry. Please note that your old Turn of the Century CQ Research (due way back before we began sheltering-in-place) has been scored with feedback and also entered into Power School.
