We were assigned a letter as we walked into class and did mini presentations at the end of class (on what we learned through a passage) with our fellow letter (partner). It was fairly interesting but my takeaway was that I really need to prioritize better. It's something I know I've needed to work on for a long time but it is now to the point where it's basically impossible to put off any longer. So my takeaway was really just "intervention" with myself.

Most of the class was out taking the Acuplacer (?) Exam and there was only six of us in class. We watched a video of Whitney Huston singing the star spangled banner and debated on whether or not she was lip-sinking. We also talked about jazz and 80s movies--both of which I was the only one who really knew anything about (or at least I was the only one who voiced my knowledge). Nothing really to "takeaway" there except for the fact that I'm a major nerd (but I think we already knew that).

There isn't much to talk about because we just did some writing about worksheets on the Oregon Trail. We had a substitute so there was no real discussions or anything. (No real takeaway either.)

We got into groups of three and read some worksheets. Then we talked about how ship were moved over the mountains though canal systems. It was a short talk that I found really interesting. I even did some short research on it because I found it cool. (Some pictures are shown below.)
When we got back form lunch, we looked at a bunch of different types of people's lives on the canal by reading cards form a game. I thought it was cool seeing all of the different scenarios.
One last thing:
Until next time!
