day 8 meeting #7

This meeting landed just after the presidential election... so that was an experience. Mrs. Lawson and I discussed our own feelings concerning the election, the repercussions of a Trump presidency, and our thoughts about the future. Politics dominated the beginning of our meeting.

For the rest of our meeting, we finalized the poll on language and labels. Mrs. Lawson sent it in an email to all of the history teachers, and they will be administering it to their students sometime this week (or the beginning of next week). I am excited and interested to see how my peers respond; I hope people are honest so I can get true data regarding language concerning race. Mrs. Lawson and I will probably spend much of next week going over the results of the poll.

After this poll, Mrs. Lawson and I are planning to go back to "textbook readings".
