HW RJ 2.3 Read for 20-30 min. and record summary ( 3-word or visual).

Everyone came into class after nutrition. Some students were complaining about rugby refereeing, and we spoke briefly about how hard it is to be good at making calls. Students wrote down agendas in their binder reminders while we took a minute. 

After that, I had the opportunity to read Akira's blog because she wasn't here. With exceptional creative detail, I heard all about how Rin selected Akira to be the next blogger. 

Somehow, after much discussion, Declan (because it was his birthday), chose me. Hm. Well, okay, so here I am. 

We finished up the week 2: Q. Q. S. L. with the speech, "What is your life Blueprint?" by Dr. King. We took notes on the three components Dr. King suggests be in our life's blueprint: 1. Self-worth, 2. Pursuit of excellence, 3. Commitment to beauty, love and justice. We listened to the end of the speech where Dr. King recited the poem, "Mother to Son" by Langston Hughes, and recorded the last and most famous lines from the speech: "If you can't fly, run. If you can't run, walk. If you can't walk, crawl, but by all means keep moving."

Once we finished,  students logged on to iReady to finish the middle of the year assessment, and that was it for period three. 

I am going to pick...
