February 19 Journals

Hi. I am working in the office today. Please be on your best behavior; I'm only a buzzer away. You should not be up a walking around nor should you be on someone else's computer. If you are on your second submission in My Access go right there after this and skip Study Island. If you are on your third submission, work in Study Island for 30 minutes and then go and finish up your essay in My Access. If you are done with your essay, work in Study Island for 30 and then begin your next prompt, "The Gettysburg Address...". Remember, My Access will lock essays out tonight at midnight. Smile for the webcam :-)


  1. Would you rather go suba diving or skydiving? Explain.

  2. Imagine that you are a cat and a huge dog is casing you. Write about what you would do to outwit the dog and make your way to safety.

I would rather do neither because I don't want to fall out of a plane, or maybe get attacked by some sort of "fish". But if I had to choose, scuba diving because I could not fall out of a plane beacuse I am scared of heights.
