LEARNING LOG~ Feb.24/12

What We Did

Today Ms.Lees checked every body's chapters 9-10 questions There Will Be Wolves. She initialled each one to check if they were completed. It took a while for Ms. Lees to check every one's questions so we read and worked on chapter 11.

After that we talked about our diary assignment. Some people got confused so we went over the expectations and the format/layout. We talked about how the diary can be typed and how big the font can be. It should be readable.

We also reviewed chapters 6-10 questions There Will Be Wolves because we had a quiz shortly after. We reviewed mostly the main key ideas and the difficult ones some of us couldn't answer.

After the quiz we went over the criteria for the bibliography. We had a sheet that had all the information of what you need in the bibliography.


Why We Did It/ Connections & Reflections


Ms.Lees checked every one's questions to see if they did there homework. I find that initialling is a great way for the teacher to know that she checked the work. Some people don't do there homework because there either too lazy, they forget or they have other important things going on. Teachers give us homework for a reason.

I had a few questions about the diary assignment so I'm glad we went over that. I have all my notes/information gathered and ready. I'm actually excited to do this assignment because it's interesting and new. I got assigned a village priest. I learned alot of new facts. At first it was hard gathering all the information but when I was fully concentrated it was easy.

We reviewed the chapters 6-10 questions because some people might of forgot the main key ideas. It refreshed my memory. On the quiz I mixed up a couple of questions :( I thought Bruno came on the Crusades and then the man carrying the coals tried to threaten her. I was kinda upset but then I realized it's just a little mistake..Get over it Shanese!!!


I think teachers make us do a bibliography because they want to know where we get our resources from. They specifically don't like students researching information on Wikipedia because half of the facts could be false. It's always better to get your data on a more accurate website or book.
