Open Topic

Hello RW 2B!

I trust that you all had a wonderful long weekend!  By Thursday of next week (March 1st), you should have 5 posts on your blog AND at least 10 comments on your classmates blogs.  Make sure that when you make a comment, your name is included (not anonymous). 

This week, I am giving you the opportunity to write a post about ANYTHING YOU WANT!  How exciting!  I would like to challenge you though and make it a requirement for this weeks post to include some pictures (your own or from the internet) or videos.  Be creative!  Have fun! 

Peace,
Julie & Genki Sushi Furball


Here is a photo of a snowcat that Toni Furber thinks looks similar to Genki.  What do you think?  Let us know by leaving a comment :)

Crime and Punishment

Hello RW2B!  We are well on our way into Unit 4, talking about Restorative Justice.

Have you ever been the victim of crime?  Or, do you know someone that was the victim of crime?  In 2 - 3 paragraphs, describe the crime.  Describe where it happened, what time of day it was, and what each person was doing before the crime.  What happened after the crime?  What happened to the offender?  Do you think the traditional justice system worked well in that case?

Have a great LOOOOONG weekend!  See you on Wednesday.  Don't forget to send me your assignment for Unit 3 by Wednesday, February 22!

This week, I would like you to write an entry using transition words that we practiced this week.  I would like for you to compare/contrast 2 things.  What things, you ask????  You can choose any 2 subjects to compare/contrast.  Remember, we practiced using Cats and Dogs.  Now, I would like you to choose the subjects. 

Have fun and have a great week!
