In 2011, I went to San Francisco for Spring Break (my brother was living there at the time) and took this picture.
Hello everyone,
Welcome to Spring Break! I know that I am certainly looking forward to resting up a bit and coming back with an abundance of energy! Here's what we did today:
Learning Targets Addressed:
SS.HS.KN.ALT.05: I can demonstrate an understanding of the principles, structures, and functions of different levels of U.S. government.
SS.HS.CO.ALT.05: I can communicate effectively, both verbally and in writing.
Soundtrack: “Come & Get It” by Selena Gomez. Selected because I think just about everyone is ready for Spring Break. Lyrics here.
AGENDA 3/21/14:
News Brief
Constitution Test
113th Congress Profile
Computer Lab N228
Homework: Have a great Spring Break! Revise historical investigation, if needed! Read the blog! Next news brief: Marco.
News Brief: Austin had the news brief today and selected this story: CNN.com - President Obama pushes for equal pay for women. It looks like he did this in a speech in Orlando. Remember that most of the time, the President/Executive Branch needs the approval of Congress to make big changes to the government.
We also chatted for a little bit about what we were up to over the break. I hope you all are safe and have fun while resting up!
Constitution Test: I hope that you studied and that this went well for you! I will see how you did after school.
113th Congress Profile: After the test, I went over a worksheet about our current Congress - the 113th in our history. This was a little activity that should help with your knowledge about what Congress looks like in various ways.
Computer Lab N228: To save some paper, we just went to the Computer Lab next door, instead of me printing out various copies of this document for the answers.
This should have been a nice and easy way to end the day and move on to Spring Break! Enjoy it - see you all in a week!
