The students in English Lit will reread the short story "the Ransom of Red Chief" in groups with Mrs. Wright and Ms. Plato facilitating. The first assignment is that students will write their own ending to the story. Students will chose and complete a character study using netbooks.
Students in Healthcare will begin to look at what is considered normal weight for Americans. Each group will be asked to look up a chart with normal weight for children and adults. The charts will include weight, height and body mass index. Students will define what body mass index is and understand what this means and how it applies to what is considered normal weight. Mrs. Wright will also show a video on what normal weight is supposed to be to include body mass index. Students will be asked to make their own chart of what they feel appropriate weight is supposed to be for them as well as adults. The class will also understand how diet and exercise help.
The fourth block class will be introduced to the topic of economics. Students will view a video on what economics is and how basic economics affect our households. The class will learn about budgets and money management.
