- We checked the one about lemmings.
- I handed out the record-keeping sheets for the paragraphs, and we plotted the first three, then made a graph.
- We went around the room and reviewed for about ten minutes.
- We spent about twenty minutes on www.vocabsushi.com for learning and practicing vocab, and preparing for the ACT.
