Note: I was out of the building today at an all day 9th Grade Success meeting. This post is what I wanted to have happen with my guest teacher for the day.
This is a photo I took in 2015 at the Gateway Arch in St. Louis.
Hi everyone,

Work Time
News Brief: Brandon had the news brief today and selected an article to talk about. After discussing the story, we also checked in to see if anyone was up to anything interesting or fun outside of class.
The next news brief was assigned in class.
Today's Black History Month fact is that on February 19, 1942 the Army Air Corps' all African American 100th Pursuit Squadron, later designated a fighter squadron, was activated at Tuskegee Institute. The squadron later served in England and Europe during WWII.
As part of the news brief, we also watched the one minute BBC World News update. Here's the link to see the latest one minute update, at any time of day (it will probably be different from what we watched in class):

Cartoon Analysis: Last class, we ended by looking at some political cartoons from the 1920s. We continued to work with them in class today. Here are the cartoons and the assignment that went with it:
We finished going through this analysis in class (if we did not last class). Please keep this to use later in the unit, as with all work with the 1920s!
Business of America: To continue our rhythm with this unit of notes then an activity, we looked at how business changed during 1920s America. The presentation we went through in class as students took Cornell Notes is here:
Through this presentation, we learned about the impact of mass advertising and new consumer products. I will introduce a new assignment related to this, next class! Thanks, everyone!
