Obviously, since there is no school today, we will not be having the presentations as planned. For now, the presentations will be done in class on Tuesday, February 26th - after the break. Even if we have school tomorrow, we have other things to work through due to writing, lab and library schedules that are planned for after the break. PLEASE DO NOT do any more work on the presentations over break. Just remember your parts and have it ready to go the Tuesday we get back. If for some reason you know one of your group members will be gone that day, please email me ASAP and we will work something out for your group. Please pass this information along to the rest of your group! THANK YOU for all your hard work and staying on top of everything! Working with you all makes my job so much better! :) Trench warfare was the theme of the day! If you were absent please read the documents on life in the trenches that you were supposed to bring to class today – no need to turn anything in, just know the information for the Unit 5 Exam.

Think about what we did first semester and how I can help you in the upcoming semester! :)
Then we went over the first key battles of the war and took notes. Next, students were introduced to the Battles Assignment and picked the battle your group will present to the class on the 14th. If you were absent, get the notes from me or a helpful classmate. Additionally, see me when you return to class about getting a group for the Battles Assignment – you do not get to pick a group on your own due to numbers.

Hope you have enjoyed the snow days. Please note, I will change some of the due dates for work when back at school (hopefully tomorrow). But note: when school resumes you should have the homework for Feb 5th completed - the Spielvogel reading. Today we played the “blame game” and each table turned in a pie chart of blame! Then we watched the first 10 minutes of the Death of Glory and completed questions 1-3 on the Viewing Guide.
