By checking the comments section (especially after yesterday's post), you would see that my students expect me to be sitting by a computer and checking blog comments at every moment. That is not the case. It may surprise many that, while I do work a lot at home (research, lesson planning, communication, etc.), I do have a personal life. Occasionally, I eat, drink, go potty, and *GASP* even watch the telly. Do not forget that teachers are human too (some of us, at least)
We took the quiz today and I showed you which Mexican states (Baja California, Baja California Sur, Chihuahua, Yucatan, Morelos, Sonora, Coahuila, Tamaulipas, Nuevo Leon, Chiapas) you need to know for next week's map test, which also includes ALL Canadian provinces, ALL US states, Central America, and the Caribbean. This will be the BIGGEST of all tests so far (until the final, which will have EVERY nation). STUDY!!!

For fun, check out this cartoon:

What do you think?

She's just dumb. I bet she was raised by hamsters in some abandoned garage. At least, that's what I picture whenever I see that video.
ReplyDeleteHey Romo, my grade still doesn't have the two new africa nations, and the new africa map, that we did. Are you gonna put those in?
ReplyDeleteI feel like I'm stalking this website now...but on the part for the carribean, will we have to know all the islands in that strip?
ReplyDeleteI'm confused about the essay we have to write. What kinds of things are u looking for besides no "i statements" name and title on back and it must be about Darfur or another conflict in Africa.
ReplyDeletehey romo I have a question. Do you want us to put the two spaces between each sentence? Or was that something mr rees went over in class... (you dont have to answer the 2nd one obviously)
ReplyDeleteHarrison - nobody has scores for Two New Countries.
ReplyDeleteGrace - FORMATTING and simply having an idea that is explained.
Evie - That's a standard requirement, but I did not mention it assuming everyone already knew. If Rees requires it, so do I (as will everyone else)
Everyone - Laptop or Notebook? Which do you prefer?
wait!
ReplyDeleteis the test on thursday?
laptop!
ReplyDeleteNorth America Map Test is on Thursday. My, what short-term memories you have!
ReplyDeleteLapbook or a Notetop. What's this about I can't remember, did we go over it in class???????????
ReplyDeleteI don't have that short of a memory Romo
I mean long of a memory I think, maybe not. Which ever seems right grammatically speacking.
ReplyDeletei have taken a break from COD 5 to ask is central america apart of this north america test
ReplyDeleteyes jewishfish. Central America is part of North America, therefore it is part of the test. To be clearer, the test is on Central America, the Caribbean, those couple Mexican States, the States of the U.S, and Canadian Provinces.
ReplyDeleteCalm down about the paper. If you have questions about the formatting, ask him tomorrow and then print it before its due on Tuesday. Not to hard.

ReplyDeletewatch this amazing music video. the man is a rhyming genius
hey romo, is there a different website that you may know of like lizard point that does little map quizes for the United States?
ReplyDeletethe carribean islands map is very vague, it's hard to know which island number 8, 7, and 11 are referring to.
ReplyDeletewhen is this big test? its not monday is it?!
