Once we got in the class, we then briefly discussed the upcoming Super Bowl and this weekend's games. There are some big fans out there and hopefully it was be a good game. Juan read his blog. Then, Eli was chosen but he had to go to the library, so I picked up the blogging role. After we finished our agendas, we took a minute. Once we corrected the blog, we set up our reading journals for the week and either read or did IXL or iReady. 

Next, we took out our English notebooks and wrote week 4 Q.Q.S.L. The quote was: "It is our duty to fight for our freedom. It is our duty to win. We must love and protect one another. We have nothing to lose but our chains." Assata Shakur. We discussed her involvement with the Black Panther Party and the events that led to her being on the FBI's most wanted list. Then, we discussed the question: How can we work toward a more just world? 

After that, we worked on our I.O.&.B.A. Essays. We went through evidence from the articles and started our draft submissions. In the end, the bell rang, so we packed up and left.
