Daily routine with the textbook work in class:
Generally we write a daily warm up exercise and view a movie clip about the day's chapter section. We do selected chapter vocabulary exercises at the beginning of a unit before doing other content exercises.

Chapter projects will vary and are listed in the chapter web pages unless they are copyrighted and can not be posted.

Most resources, videos, extension activities, interactive activities and web links are posted somewhere in this wiki.
