Good News/Bad News

Moneta Sleet Jr.‘s photographs of the Selma-to-Montgomery March capture not only the movement’s leaders but also the sheer number of ordinary citizens who demonstrated. Braving the wet weather, participants walked uphill (both literally and figuratively) to the state capitol in solidarity for voting rights. Two and a half weeks after the march began, Dr. King and others triumphantly led the crowd into Montgomery. The 1965 Voting Rights Act was signed into law four and a half months later.

You can add your Good News/ Bad News stories here!

My Monday morning news:

Good News : It’s raining, so it’s a good day to stay inside and work! The rain reminds me of soft Welsh mountain moss, which I love. Also, I have three new books to read!

Bad News : My son is really sick with a cold. I have a LOT of work to do!

Your turn now!

Hello 5ème OIB! Week One: 16-20 March

How are you all? It’s a beautiful Sunday and all of the OIB teachers have been working hard to ensure you have things to keep you learning during the school closure. Lucky you!

I will put all of your homework on ProNote, of course! I’m even recording videos of the Journey to Jo-burg chapters, so that you can remember my voice!

You can comment on this blog at any time. Be kind!!!!

Don’t forget to check your ENT and ProNote – I will post your work for the week.

You can also ask your parents if you can watch a film in English – if you use subtitles, don’t forget they should be … ENGLISH!

The work you do can be sent by email, via the ENT or even using La Poste! You can handwrite and take a photo.

Please ask if you have any problems – don’t wait until the last minute!
