That’s right. Our Canterbury Tales test is tomorrow! There will a history questions, Canterbury Tales prologue questions (indirect and direct characterization) Wife of Bath Tale questions, Pardoner’s Tale questions, and irony questions (can you explain why something is ironic).

We reviewed today with a Kahoot AND a Classcraft game.

My Kahoot winners were Stephen (2nd), Liz (3rd), Jason (4th), Kristi (5th), Gabby (6th) and April and Jason (7th) – they all earned an extra 100 gold! Jason was my overall winner with a score of 12,822. NO ONE COULD BEAT HIM! In fact, because Justin Y. (in the same class) scored a 12,721, I ended up giving THE ENTIRE CLASS 200 extra gold because they unleashed Beast Mode on the game!

Then, we did a Classcraft game where you tried to defeat a Wazler. Winners got gold AND XP! Woot!

There is also an irony review slide show and a whole bunch of other review games in Blackboard just waiting to be played.

Computer roll out is today! I won’t see 3rd period, but I’ll be spending a long time with my 2nd period.

For my students, I use Google docs (so you’ll need that password) and Dyknow – just sign up for my class.

Some classes were able to create characters on Classcraft (check your e-mail) and others were able to review the Anglo-Saxon history (PBJ Time!) via Plickers.

We are going to start reading Beowulf tomorrow, so make sure you are here! You probably won’t want to read this by yourself. 😉

My grades for progress reports are due tomorrow! If I don’t have your obituary turned in by today, it’s going in the gradebook as a MSG assignment!

Pretty easy day today – we just worked on the Bucket List Carpe Diem essay pre-writing.

prewriting stations

There are 12 stations to contemplate. Once you are done with this, you should have a working thesis, quotes, and proof for your essay that we are going to write tomorrow!

You can use the links in Blackboard to refresh your memory on specific facts and character names.

this is your life

I’m *really* excited about Classcraft – a new way that I bring gamification back to my classroom. I spent a little time today creating characters with you. Please, if you have any questions or suggestions, let me know! You are my guinea pigs for next year! 😀
