First and fourth periods learned about ballads today. We looked at a ballad called the “Boots of Spanish Leather,” and got to listen to Mr. Scott play the guitar and sing the ballad in class. We rewrote the ballad stanza by stanza in our own words, and identified the gender of the speaking party in each stanza. However, the final stanza of the ballad has been left blank for students to create their own ending, following the rhyme scheme and meter of the ballad as best they can for homework.

Second and seventh periods worked on some PASS practice  they also worked in group they also got there rubric for their discussion.
