Chapter Two and More

We do pages 7-14 like we did yesterday.

Now we look at this.  And then read Chapter 2.

You write in your daybook:  describe several ways Kevin's dad solved  problems he faced as a kid with no legs.

What is this family learning during this time?

Now think about you and your family.  Think about learning how to do stuff.  What are some things you know how to do, or that you are still learning how to do, that you could explain and describe for us. Brainstorm a list of what you could write about. The goal is (eventually) a paper of several pages, so you're looking for a topic with lots of potential for information or storytelling.

In Moodle we'll create another forum with those brainstorms in it, so you can give each other ideas.  It's okay to write about similar topics.

After seeing ideas and thinking some more,  take one or two of your ideas and create a list of steps for it;  these are the steps in doing the task.  These are the steps you learned about doing, or it could be the steps you went through in order to learn the task.  Do this within the brainstorming forum.

Homework:

1.  Read pages 17-20 in Brushup, doing the practices.  Then do Test 1 before class.

2.  Read page 244 in Seeing the Pattern.
