Week 9

Continue Working

Most students didn’t finish the US Regions assignment from yesterday. There are also several students that still need to finish the US Map assignment. Today you need to try to get those finished because on Monday we are starting a project.

US Language Quiz

After you turn your assignments in, I want you to take this language quiz for fun. This quiz tells you where in the US you get your speech habits from. Depending on where you live in the United States, you use different words or pronounce words differently. Your family’s history on where they are from or have lived, greatly affects this. Whenever you finish, it will try to predict what part of the country you are from. When I took this quiz, it guessed that I was from Wichita, Springfield (MO), or Lexington. So it guessed the correct part of the country for me.

Both you and your partner will probably want to take the quiz so each of you can see if it can guess where you are from in the US.

If you have everything turned in, you can do what you’re always allowed to do:

-Read a book

-Work on Homework from another class

-Visit Class Links/Google Earth
