3. Inference-Let's review and then watch a video that may help us perfecting our inferencing skills.

5. Wordle-It's time again for us to express ourselves. Today we will be using word clouds to create a gallery of words all about you. Many web sites offer word clouds and let's try Wordle first.
Step 1: Go to Wordle

Step 2: Create your word cloud by typing in words that describe you. Do not use your last name anywhere in your Wordle. Be expressive! Press "GO" when finished.

Step 3: Save your wordle to the public gallery, but do not put your last name in the description.

Step 4: Copy (control-c) the embed code at the bottom of the page

Step 5: Paste (control-v) the embed code into an email you will send to me. Your email should have the title "Norman-Wordle"

6 NC Write-Let's see if we can finally get going with NC Write! You will be completing the writing prompt titled "Choose a Special Power." Your essay should be at least 150 words long.

7. Social Studies Warm-Up-Answer the following question in your Norman Social Studies Google doc.

Why do you think the fall of the Roman Empire was such a bad thing? Be sure to fully explain your answers.
