Here we are at the end of the 1st nine weeks and things are happening quickly!
As we wrap up our 3rd project in 8th grade, I decided to reflect on how things have been going so far.
I feel like we are getting the hang of the Engage! Learning Model routine. My students are aware of what protocol we are working in when asked by Mr. Lester. They know that they need to have journals passed out and will always have something to do when the bell rings. We still need to work on the efficiency of the research/work time so that the last few days of creating doesn't CREATE a sense of stress due to procrastination. That's something students and teachers alike can work on I think!
I am looking forward to Mr. Mendez viewing our great displays that will be done this week. I hope he can see that the students worked hard on calculating profit from concession sales. I love this project was real-life that benefits our school. This really inspired our next project that will start next week.
