Today's Quote:
'Try dying every day to your old self . . . So that you emerge renewed and young again as the tired mind sheds its load.' ~ Kristin Zambucka |
RECAP:
On Monday and Tuesday, Biology students finished up their unit on Flowers by taking the test and then began our unit on genetics and heredity. Earth SPace science classes began their in depth discussions of the planets in your solar system. Intensive reading classes worked on skill building in how to recognize ethos, pathos and logos in advertisements.
Entry Task/ Brain Bender:
Art Bragg was standing in the Soul Ace Hotel, bragging about his hunting ability. He recalled a time when he was hunting Mountain Goats and suddenly came across a panther, a mountain lion, and a puma, all at the same time! Knowing he had only one bullet, and that his life hung in the balance, he took careful aim and killed them all with just one shot. Is Bragg spouting another tall tale or is this situation plausible? Bonus- what geographic area was he hunting, and how do you know?
