Objective: EOC prep, Reading, Vocabulary Development

Well, I was SUPPOSED to be at school today.  But, Ellie decided to get hurt and we spent 6 hours in the ER at Cook Children's Hospital last night. She fell out of a chair and hit her head on a rock fireplace. After some vomiting, her pediatrician recommended to take her to the ER. She was cleared to come home but needs to be monitored for the next 24-48 hours. For these reasons, I'm at home loving on my baby girl today.

1. First, please take this survey: http://www.bbyt.es/ZB8HU
1. Technically, only my 3rd period is supposed to take the survey.  However, if you don't have a 3rd period teacher with a blog, feel free to take it in here.  If you take it in here, please don't take it again in another class.
2. Article of the Week #3: 
1. Make sure you are done with the 3-3-1
2. Then, make sure you are done with the Short Answer Practice from yesterday.
3. Today's assignment is to do the Short Answer Cross-Over Question.  This question is over the article about driverless cars and the article about the effects of video game binges.  
4. The sub should have a hard copy of the questions.  Here's the digital link, just in case.  (Do one as a class and then one on your own.) 
3. If you work hard and I get a good report from the sub, you will get a Free Day on Friday.  Seriously, you should be working and NOT online, except to read this blog post.
