Today was the first that you little Bucaneers did real curriculum work. Woe to the student that missed today! You missed group work!

We started out by doing a pretty fun activit. The class was split into two groups (right side of the room and left side of the room) and we had to decide what archetype each Vistas staff member is.

After this was completed, we kinda sorta did a map. We labeled the countries on Great Britain (England, Scotland, and Wales) and labeled the countries On Ireland (Ireland and Northern Ireland). We learned that Northern Ireland is NOT a part of the UK – ask anyone in class about it – they will be more than happy to demonstrate. 🙂

Then, we broke off into groups and chose a role: Peanut, Butter, Jelly, or Time. Each role had different sections of the textbook to read. Once you were done reading your sections, you drew pictures that represented what you read. Picture notes are pretty easy!

Peanut Butter Jelly Time!

If you didn’t finish your picture today in class, take them home and work on them tomorrow for homework. They have to be done for class tomorrow so your group doesn’t get behind.

 
Oh, and we will be having a group quiz sometime soonish. Don’t miss it!
