Peer revision and Election buzz...

Ms. Cassaro taught Humanities today. Students continued the writing process and today they worked on revision. We defined revision as adding, taking away, changing or rearranging anything in our writing in order to improve it. Students peer-revised each others' papers and will self-revise their papers tomorrow.

Ms. Cassaro continued with a lesson on the role that the House of Representatives and Senate play in shaping the presidency. We discussed the makeup and the responsibilities of the House and the Senate and the current party representation that exists in each. Students later answered questions to demonstrate understanding.

HOMEWORK: Students are homework-free tonight!
