Welcome to Sword everyone!
Today was a great class. We were so excited to:
- get to know you better (thanks for those surveys!)
- exercise with you (oh, you crazy wall sits, you!)
- talk about proper note taking and and proper lecture behavior
- see your eyes light up with the knowledge that YOU CAN complete the requirements and earn the SWORD!
We talked about award requirements, rules, class behaviors, and TIME MANAGEMENT! General Schmeider hooked us up with some awesome advice about how to get IMPORTANT things DONE!
This week, your assignments are:
- Read Uncle Tom's Cabin (only a few weeks left before the colloquium!)
- Work on your presentations - KALEIGH --> you are up next week!
- Write a paper on the question, "Where is your allegiance and why?"
- ASK YOUR PARENTS what Saturdays in October and November are free for a movie day
- ASK YOUR PARENTS which battle activity they would financially support...paintballing (out of pocket for you or your parents) or airsoft/nerf/water balloon war (if you have airsoft guns we can borrow this should be LOW cost)
Remember, as you are passing off requirements, you advance in rank.
The person with the greatest rank each class period, gets SPECIAL PRIVILEGES!
And you can get to class early to steal your opponent's flag...for bragging rights.
See you next Thursday!
