Assignments for the Week of October 27

Monday: I will not be in class today. You may use the period to work on homework, projects, or to study for tests for your regular education classes.

Tuesday: There are two websites listed below. The first one is a picture of the 27 Waterfalls in the Dominican Republic and the other is of The Great Wall of China. Neng, you will write a picture prompt response to the 27 waterfalls picture. Gilbert, you will be writing one for The Great Wall of China picture. Here's the catch: the story must include some of the significant information you learned about the country through the presentations given last week. Therefore, your story should have something to do with being a teen in that country, schooling, food, family traditions, holidays, etc. Have fun! You will have the period to type your response.
