Here’s what we did today:

1. We began class by getting into our TodaysMeet groups from Tuesday and sharing what we learned last night from our parents.

Discuss the poem “In Flanders Fields” with your parents; take notes in your SSEnglish journal. After, discuss the questions we posed to you on TodaysMeet:
1. What did you do yesterday to honor/commemorate Veterans Day?
2. What is Veterans Day and why do we celebrate it?

Take notes on their responses to these two questions too.

Note: Bold type above is what you were supposed to do for homework last night.

2. Mrs. Peterson gave notes on the Five Elements of Fiction.

Reminders:

•Come dressed and be ready to hike on Thursday.

•Bring your lunch and two, 32-ounce water bottles filled with water.

•Come dressed in layers and bring extra layers; it will be cold.

•End of First Quarter Reflection due to your basecamp teacher on Thursday. Make sure you pass in hard copies and have clearly labeled all steps of the writing process.
