Students receive handouts for, plan their work, and begin work on “The Pigman Project.” And students continue work through Prep for Regents, pp. 33-81, explaining to each other what the sections teach; doing the oral exercises. [This will take several weeks.] For the listening ex on 34, students take notes, then compare them to the model on 36.
We’ll try to split the periods between Prep for Regents and The Pigman. If we can’t, then we will split the week, with the first two days on Pigman and the last on Prep for Regents.
