Great Job Today! See Below!

As I walked around today, I noticed some wonderful essays which were carefully typed and edited. I also noticed some essays which were copied word for word from an internet source. Please make sure you understand the words you used. When you come across a word you're unfamiliar with......use a dictionary and put the sentence into your own words.

Please keep in close contact with your groupmates and make sure everyone is kept in the loop for the final project which is due next Monday, May 5th.

I hope you are learning from this higher level thinking skill activiy.
