Today we went over several issues we have been having with our terms, such as capitalization, underlining, and spacing them out. Remember to skips lines in between each new term and double check the proper way to spell a term. Also make sure you are very clear on each person because many people have similar names or have done similar things. Then we took our terms quiz #4. Our digital devices agreed to work this time. After the quiz, we continued looking at the Berlin wall political cartoon and began to interpret it.

Hi guys! It's the second day of the week and we started off with correcting some capitalization and terms issues. Remember the correct capitalization is very important when talking about a certain term! Also remember to state the who or what when it comes to a people term. Lastly, terms should be spaced out, numbered and labeled correctly! Afterwards, we had our quiz for terms list #4 and continued our discussion on the Berlin Wall graphic.

Hello guys! Today is Monday and we started off with playing around with google earth. We continued our lecture on Cuba and the Bay of Pigs. Then we started to talk a little about the Berlin wall. After that, we used LIE (Literal Interpret Extrapolate) on a political cartoon relating to the Berlin Wall. We spent the rest of the class period picking out all the literal aspects of the graphic. Remember that tomorrow we have a terms quiz for terms list #4! Have a good day!
