Pat asked me to sub 5th period with Cameron yesterday for today. We even spoke about it earlier today. It looked like Cameron may have been scheduled for Spanish class (?) 5th period. Cameron left school at lunch. I have reached out to him via Teams calls & texts for a remote class, but received no response between 12:30 - 1:15. I texted Pat to let him know this class was not happening.
The Seminole Wars were three related military conflicts in Florida between the United States and the Seminole, citizens of a Native American nation which formed in the region during the early 1700s. Hostilities commenced about 1816 and continued through 1858, with two periods of uneasy truce between active conflict.
In today's class, Cameron worked on a pre-lab activity that covers everything we are going to do in our lab after the Thanksgiving holidays. The activity includes questions about fermentation and prompts Cameron to think critically when it comes to the topic at hand.

Cameron will be online for the rest of the week, so we are not able to do the lab until he comes back from thanksgiving break. Otherwise, great class with Cameron.
More Than Something Else by Rainy Dawn Ortiz lesson plan. Who were/are the indigenous people who once inhabited the land we live on? What happened to them? Where are they now? Today we took a deep dive into local Palm Beach County to assess students’ knowledge of local traditional lands and explore them, using NativeLand.ca as a teaching tool. This exercise will have Cameron learn more about where he comes from and what his geography means to both him and the Indigenous people that live on their land.
This was supposed to be a remote class today, Cameron never came into our Teams classroom which was open for him for the duration of the period.. He also didn't respond to a text through Teams.
We reviewed last week's assignment and discussed the fact that providing a good value with good customer service is not enough in today's society where consumers are bombarded with advertisements and have the ability to leave reviews instantly that may harm a business. New topics included Customer Loyalty and ways to increase Customer Retention. Cameron made logical conclusions regarding the Pre and Post Purchase Experiences.

Lesson Comments
Cameron is engaging nicely and he thinks his answers through which leads to good discussions linking his fictional business to real life experiences.
Today we reviewed the activities that were assigned to him last week. He did an excellent job. After, we started working on some verbs in the present tense.
Introduce Thanksgiving/Gratitude mini-unit for the week; Thanksgiving History and Traditions PowerPoint on Teams in which students will read and learn about the origins of the holiday, historical context, surprise facts, and the evolution of the holidays' traditions while considering the way their own family celebrates/practices gratitude on Thanksgiving and beyond.
