Check In/Review Agreements: At the beginning of class, we went over the Courageous Conversations Agreements, as always, to begin our work together for the day. After checking in, we talked for a bit about what is happening in the world outside of class, before moving on.

What Can I Do Today?: We also asked students if there was anything they wanted to add to the "What Can I Do Today?" poster up at the front of the room, in terms of actions outside of class. We also noted that the list is live on the blog here on the upper right corner, with links!

Senior Presentations: Because this was the last day with the seniors in class, we had our seniors present their final projects to everyone. Please make sure to turn in any electronic copies (especially the reflection) on Google Classroom! Thank you so much for your hard work on this, everyone!

Celebration/Final Assignment: The rest of class was spent celebrating as a class and working on the final project proposal (one paragraph) which was due at the end of class (on Google Classroom). As a reminder, here is the final assignment:


We will have a very short work day on Wednesday, due to the Senior Assembly, and then finish our semester together by looking at race in Portland. See you next class! Thanks again, seniors - good luck!
