Wednesday
Hey, it's Wednesday. Today we took a look at our quiz on chapter 37. We talked a bit of strategy and double checked a few questions. We also began work text coding (annotating) some articles on the upcoming elections. Speaking of elections, I am introducing a special group code tonight that I want you to join. It is DMS Election 2012 and will enable you to get some information on the elections as well as take part in the 6th and 7th grade presidential election (US National Election) that will take place on Tuesday (for students only). You will stop into the IMC at your leisure sometime Tuesday, log in to Edmodo, and place your vote. It will only let each student vote once so make it count. Then, we will hashtag the poll to Edmodo where they will enter our results in a national poll. Sounds like fun.
