HAPPY FRIDAY!!

Have a wonderful day with Janae and Zoe!


Please turn in your folders to the box at the front! (Email your textbook passage and reflection if you have not done so already.)


AGENDA
Starter 1.16  Exchange textbook passages with a partner.  
What similarities and differences does it have with your own?  Is one account more balanced than the other?  Where do you see a bias in your partner's writing? (Please note in your starter who you exchanged with.)


Small Group Discussion
In groups of 3 or 4, discuss your experience with the historical inquiry.  Create a Google Doc shared with all group members and Jessica where you will record #2 and #3.  
1.  (YOU DON'T HAVE TO WRITE #1...JUST TALK ABOUT IT)  
Have an organic conversation about the assignment.  What was difficult about it?  What was interesting?  Where did you see your bias emerge in your textbook passage?
2.  (RECORD THIS) What questions does your group still have about the events of the inquiry?
3.  (RECORD THIS) Create a series of 15-20 hashtags that address the questions:  What happened at Wounded Knee?  Why did it happen?


Begin Film
Watch the first few chapters of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.  Take notes in such a way that will help you write the response essay.  Collect evidence from the film. Analyze it as you watch.  Note questions that you have.
