If students did not already turn in their first mass experience writing, it was collected at the start of class today. We then spent the block learning the concepts in the introductory chapter of the textbook. Some notes were given; we also completed the activity on page 10 of the text and discussed the students' answers. Who Am I? projects were returned with grades today.

After reviewing the course policy sheet, we looked at the Mission of NDCL as well as the Core Values. Students wrote the values and their definitions in their notebooks. They were then put in small groups and given one of the values to create a collage. Class time was given to work on the collage, and class time will be given on Monday, August 27, as well. Homework was assigned for Wednesday, August 29- the Who Am I? project. This will be presented to the class on that date. (The values collage, which is primarily an in-class project, will also be presented on that date.)
