Tuesday, 8/26/08 - Welcome! Seating Chart. Names.
Copy homework into assignment
book. If you don't yet have an assignment book, use a sheet of paper in
your binder or notebook. Be sure to copy the assignments again into your
assignment book when you get one. This is what we do on the first day of
every week. The homework for the entire week (and sometimes beyond) will
be on the board the first day of each week, and the first thing we do is
copy it into our assignment books. Get a notebook by Thursday!
CLICKERS! Practice. COPY AND CLICK!
The warm up will, after today, almost always be the first
thing we do everyday.
--You grab your clicker as you come in the door.
--You open your notebook, and write the title ("Warm
Up") and date.
--You await further instructions.
--If the instructions say to copy, you copy into your
notebook. You'll get enough time to do that, but warm ups are
timed.

Motto by Langston Hughes
I play it cool
and dig all jive.
That's the reason
I stay alive.
My motto,
As I live and learn,
is:
Dig and Be Dug
In Return.
Cool? Dig? Jive?
Pick one and try to explain what it means in this context.

concept of "digging." |
