April+7,+2017

Hello, everyone!

=First of all, a big, huge, enormous pat on the back to all of you for finishing four days of testing. You. Are. AWESOME!!!!!=

Ok, now on to more fun things. ..

Here's what you'll need to be successful in class today:
 * a chrome book
 * headphones
 * your assignment book
 * a pencil/pen
 * your green OMG packet
 * your login and password for edpuzzle (it should be in your handbook, right behind the plastic pocket)

Once you have that all gathered, head to Step 1 below:

Step 1: Grab your assignment book and open it up to today. Watch this video to find out what the homework is and a little bit about what you're doing today. Don't skip it just because you //think// you know what the homework is. There's other stuff, too!

Step 2: If you are in periods 1, 2, or 5, or if you missed class this week, you will need to start with this video about the gods' family tree. If you're not sure if you need to watch this - turn to the first page of your green OMG packet - the one with all the shapes. Are the hexagons and diamonds filled in? If not, you should watch the video!

Step 3: Pop on over to Edpuzzle and log in. You have two videos to watch, and they are both PHENOMENAL. Seriously. You'll love the narrator. She's my spirit animal. They are called Prometheus, People, and Punishments (watch that one first) and Pandora's Box (watch that one second). If you absolutely cannot figure out your login and password, use the links below, but ONLY if you REALLY cannot figure it out, since I'll probably make you do it again once I'm back.

Prometheus

Pandora's Box

Step 3: Wise use of time

Hey, if you've made it to step 3, you are now able to have a wise use of your time. I suggest the following:
 * Take an ARP test if you finished a book during testing this week!
 * Write a summary for that ARP book - do both and you can turn it in!
 * Read The Lightning Thief and answer the questions for Chapters 1-5
 * Work on your Getting to the Root of It packet
