Review of Colonies Jay G.

It was October 1st. When we came into the classroom after shaking hands with Mr. Armstrong, we were assigned in pods. I was assigned in green pod. When were all seated in our assigned seats, Mr. Armstrong told everyone to write the homework down, which was week 7. Soon after that, we found a paper which looked like some sort of an organizer. Mr. Armstrong soon told us that it was an organizer which we were to organize the colonies we have learned so far. We started, but discovered that Mr. Armstrong forgot to give us our sheet of information. After receiving it from Mr. Armstrong. Soon after, Jeong Ah and Se June discovered that the sheet of information did not contain Roger Williams, the Mayflower Contract, and other information. Like us, Mr. Armstrong had been enjoying the Chusok vacation and was not out of relaxing. He soon told the class that some information was missing. After 20 minutes of talking and jotting down notes we stopped. We went over the organizer to see if we had any missing details. Then, Mr. Armstrong lowered the screen and started to explain about the colonies now known as New York and Pennselvania. We started to learn about them and Mr. Armstrong fed us information. He then said to do our immersion. The immersion had a Holt PDF and ABC CLIO. It also contained 2 videos. While we were doing the immersion, Mr. Armstrong announced to the class that there was a quiz on Tuesday next week. There were a few groans. After some time, Mr. Armstrog told us to turn off our laptops and put them in the laptop cabinet. When most people had gone out, Jeong Ah and Se June recieved two pieces of candies for finding mistakes in the sheet of information.
