Word!

Image result for did somebody say field trip

ENGLISH
Write a response to today's field trip. It must NOT be an essay. It is NOT something like "My favorite writer was __________ because ___________". Instead, I want you to take what you saw and heard and present something that reflects your mind state or perception of the trip. It can be on a writer, him/herself, on a poem/story you heard, the ideas of a Writer's Festival, the moderator, or whatever resonated with you.
You could do a poem, a narrative, a song, a word collage or anything else in written/visual form. Be CREATive.
Bottom line: You need to hand in something that shows me you were present and engaged on today's field trip.


SOCIALS
Complete 1,2,4,5, page 343.

If you are my Christian Studies 12 student, you likely completed your questions in class, by all the end of class chatter, but, if not, complete 1-6 for chapter 5 of Mere Christianity.

...be excellent to each other.
