Hey 7G...I hope you are all doing well?! Did you all get outside over the weekend? I hope so because it was beautiful out. I took my dog for a 3 mile walk on Saturday...it was refreshing!

Thank you all so much for staying on top of things. I appreciate all of your hard work!
There is some useful info regarding the effect of this loss of instruction for students in today's episode...pay attention to the beginning of the show!
HINT: also pay attention to the very last scene of the episode!

The sun bakes them
The hand breaks them
The foot treads them
The mouth tastes them.

What are they?

Hi there,
Today we will be trying something new called Jamboard. Please watch the video first. I recorded a tutorial showing you how to "Jam" on a Jamboard! Then once you have watched the video, watch today's edition of CNN 10. After that open the second link in this assignment called "Google Jamboard" and create your sticky notes. Make sure you turn in your assignment to me once you have completed it. Remember this counts towards your Current Events grade! Any questions either add a comment to this post or email me [email protected]
Thanks guys! Miss you all!

Please be aware that this quiz will count as a grade for Current Events/Humanities.
HINT HINT.....Make sure you pay attention to dates in this episode!
Also, the last two questions on this quiz require you to check boxes for ALL the correct answers...

Test your knowledge on the Corona-virus

Please watch CNN 10 today. Complete quiz for today's newscast. Please make sure you type your REAL name where is says, "Name."
Thank you!
