Today, we worked on our squares. For each topic, we listed four KEY WORDS, then explained what each key word meant in a SENTENCE, and then drew a PICTURE on the top flap.

Key Words and Sentences

Pictures on the outside

This is an activity where you need to focus on your work and make sure that you are staying task.

If you need help, Captain Riley has help cards for you. Just don’t skip reading the section, because then you won’t be able to explain what those words mean.

III – 9/20/2012

Today, we finished the grievance that we started yesterday. If you lost your paperwork, you can print it out from LMS. Remember – just the facts, and be specific!

We then looked over the Declaration of Independence, which is the list of grievances that the American colonists had with England.

Riley then gave us a windoe pane over the Speech in the Virginian Convention.

Then, we read and annotated the speech together. Riley “acted” it out, lying prostrate on the floor. Carol went prostrate on the floor when Admiral Ekster boarded the ship. Good job, Carol!
