Day 60 - Thurs Dec 13: Studying (and teaching) about the Holocaust takes a toll on young (and not so young) hearts and minds. Today was a brief test on the background information for this most difficult unit. With one day left in the week, we decided to turn the mood of the class around tomorrow by doing something light-hearted.
I proposed two options for the students to vote on:
a) a class period of "chatting" about any/all topics that the students would like to bring up.
- OR -
b) playing a bird identification game.
At day's end, the popular vote among all of my classes was beyond the sabotage of hanging chads or resurrected voters!
