Comp Books are looking good!

You all have improved the depth of your writing in the first 3 weeks. Everybody is trying hard to find their voice when writing, just so ya know, I'm hearing it! SO KEEP IT UP! The more you write, the clearer your voice becomes.

CLASSROOM NORMS

Our classroom norms are being developed but our base has been established. The norms of OUR Health and Leadership classroom are:

We will not use words as weapons.

We will build our knowledge together, as a class.

We will be "Engaged" during class time.

We will find - and use - Our Voice.

Discourse in the classroom

For the most part, discussions have been good in the classroom. There have been some good examples of students finding their voice. It is very important that the student express their words and their perspectives when learning the content of the classroom.

If this is the start, I can't wait to see where it ends! I look forward to great discussion in the future!
