• To begin class, students were asked to write down 5 predictions for the year 2050. We then shared our predictions as a class. In pairs, students read an article on p.59 about Futurologists and what they predict the world will be like in 40 years. Students answered the questions in Act. 2-21 about the article and discussed it with their partner and then with the whole class.
• We used our 15 definitions to play “I’m thinking of a word…” in which students took turns reading their definitions to the class and having others guess which word it was for.
• Maestra Range introduced the subjunctive tense using a Power Point presentation and explained that the subjunctive is used in complex clauses to express doubt, influence and emotion.
• Maestra Thurber-Brown reviewed the Exam 2A with the class, and went over the homework for Monday.
