2. Vocabulary - We're going to correct the objective part of the worksheet you got on Friday (8th hour won't get this until Monday) and hand in the sentences for grading. We will have a vocabulary test over lists 1, 2, and 3 on Tuesday, February 12.

3. Reading Workshop - Keep working on your books and your Reading Logs. Remember all is due Feb. 21.

4. Antique Spanish Sea Captain's Map - We're going to look at a transparency reproduction of a Spanish Sea Captain's Map from the late 1700's. You're going to be asked to list all the ways it is different from a map we'd use today.

5. Library Tour - Mrs. Loughren is going to give you a specially guided tour of the library, pointing out several of the reference tools and study aids you will be using for the next 3 1/2 years. While she's doing this, you'll be making a rough diagram of the library in your class notebook, which you will use in completing...

6. Floor Plan Assignment - Back in the room, we'll go over your assignment: drawing a floor plan of the library listing all of the references/study aids/miscellaneous items found on the list you're given (remember, you have your notes from the tour to refer to). Your floor plan will be done in the style of the old Spanish map we looked at, rather than like a modern map. These floor plans are due Friday, February 15. Refer to the grading criteria on the back of your instruction sheet.
