Gandhi


Today we will discuss the life and achievements of Monandes K. Gandhi.  Then we will read and analyze a speech that he made on civil disobedience.


You can find the speech on pg. 377 in your English book.  Please read through it carefully and think about his words.  Do the following outline and then write a 2 paragraph response.  The first paragraph describing the main ideas and the second paragraph will be your thoughts or commentary.  Please staple together and turn in on Wednesday (2/26) when you walk into class.


Continue working on your 1920's history project.  Please meet with me if you have any questions

It is time to start registering for the ACT if you plan to take it in March.  Registration deadline for the test on April 12th is March 7th.  Remember the ACT is much different than the SAT and many students get better scores.  Colleges will replace your SAT score with ACT if you do better.  You all should strongly consider taking it on April 12th.

Mrs. Leonard has put together a contest for Read Across America.  We can choose to participate by decorating our class door in some sort of fun reading theme.  The advisory with the best decorated door will win an ice cream sundae party.  Would you all want to participate???

Finally, check your handout form Mrs. Badger on Starting Your Own Business.  #3 on the quiz should be true, but she may have graded incorrectly.  Check your quiz and if this happened to you please take it to Mrs. Badger to get your points.
