Homework
1. Read I Am Malala to page 164
2. Finish Future Map Brainstorm

    The first thing we did when we came into class was recite the usual poems "We Wear the Mask" by Paul Laurence Dunbar and "We Real Cool" by Gwendolyn Brooks. The next thing we did was add Back to School Night in our agendas from 5:00-7:30 on September 8th. Then, we went back into our Somebody/Wanted/But/So groups to add the finishing details to it. After everyone was done, each group shared their chapter while standing up one at a time as a presentation in the class. When the last presentation was done, Ms. Witham let everyone choose to either read I Am Malala, work on the Future Map Braintorm, or ask her about Jupiter grades. Everyone did one of these things for the last few minutes of class and then we were dismissed.
