Today we started learning about the government in sciences humaines.  Here is a link to one of the short videos we watched to activate our learning about the levels of government and their responsibilities:
The Levels of Government

In ELA we are learning about how to use information to justify our ideas and opinions.

In FLA, we started our Tableau d'inspiration presentations.  So far, we've seen some great presentations that demonstrated a very good understanding of our learning goals.  I'm excited to see the rest on Monday!
