The Art of Listening

We focused on the art of listening today in class. At the beginning of class, we did a Kahoot activity on current events. After this, we had a lesson on listening. We learned what it really meant to listen and how important it was. We then did a quick activity to see how good our listening skills were before we were dismissed.

The Argumentative Essay

I was pretty nervous coming to class today. I knew that we had to write our argumentative essays today and I was a tad bit intimidated by the thought of it.

Certainty and Doubt Pt.2

Today was another normal day in class. We mainly built upon yesterday's lesson today. We watched a few sources and built claims from them.

Another Multiple Choice Activity

Today was another normal day in class.  We took another practice multiple choice test. We didn't do to good again as a class. We still got a chance to improve our score because of the group activity we did afterwards when we corrected our answers. I think our problem with these questions now comes down to the wording of them.  We understand the strategy of process of elimination but it becomes really hard when we have to decipher the meaning of some of the question's complicated wording. I think that an activity where we take some of the complicated questions and learn to break them down will help us out trenendously in the future.
