Homework for B Day - 30 October

AP Seminar

Great work today with your presentations everyone. I was really pleased by what I saw and by the work that you all put together. Be sure that you take some time to reflect on your performance (I'll have a proper reflection form for you later) as well as take some time to think about your future TMPOD work. For tonight, we have a few things to read and annotate to lead into Thursday. First, we have our article which was given out in class as well as the video available here. Be sure to view these through the lens of protest, which will help to set a purpose for your annotations.

After this, or before, be sure that you complete your question organizer around protest. You should complete five of the eight lenses. You'll have a chance to speak together and collaborate around your questions next class.

Advanced Russian

Today we took time to review the concept of the abstract for a research paper and the specific components that are needed for it. Be sure that you are spending time to work tonight so that you can collaborate a bit next class in order to complete the work. It's due on Monday, via Google Drive and it'll be a shared group score.

Further, please take a look at Exercise 5.2 (Russian II) and consider the aspect of the verbs in the text. Russian III students should look at the reading assignments at the beginning of Chapter Eight to see how the new pronouns are used in context.

On Thursday you'll be reading and working with a short story before you do some work to create a skit in Russian to practice your speaking and performance skills.

Russian I

Today we took our quiz on the first part of Chapter One. If you were absent, then you'll have to see me next week to make up the quiz. From there, we worked on knowing our verb conjugation patterns. Please see the slides on Google Classroom if you missed class since everything is there.

For tonight you should do a few things to review and practice what we did today in class. First, review pages 47 and 48 in your textbook for a review of how to conjugate the two types of verbs - first and second conjugation. Then, look at exercise FOUR on page FIFTY ONE. Look at the question, and present a positive or negative answer based on what you would like. Skip number 9 and 11 since we haven't yet looked at reflexive verb conjugations yet.

Also, if today's quiz was difficult for you, continue to study and review, remember that you'll get the chance to do a reassessment.
