Miss D. was out sick on Friday and Monday.
Today was an exciting day because we shared our Pizza Box Heritage projects. Students shared their projects in small groups and gave and received feedback from classmates. Students got a chance to look at the project feedback they received before turning it in to receive a grade.
After sharing projects, we had the chance to celebrate each of our personal cultures by sharing food that we brought. Today, we dined on vegan chocolate cake, Russian tea, crepes, English bread and butter, scones, pasta salad, tomatoes and mozzeralla cheese, ambrosia, gumbo and more.
Students practiced with their week two vocab words from Seedfolks. Here are this week's words:
1. vegetating-v- leading a lazy existence without utilizing your body or mind
2. oblige-v- to do a favor for
3. refuge-n- a place that provides shelter and protection
4. haphazard-adj- marked by lack of plan or order
5. disgrace-n- source of shame or embarassment
6. crevice-n- narrow opening resulting from a crack
7. solitary-adj- being, living, or going alone without companions
8. decorum-n- good taste in conduct or appearance
Homework tonight: do the "my example" portion of the vocab sheet, writing a sentence with each vocab word.
