Internet - Students will be using the internet to look up new vocabulary words and define them. This will be used in addition to text dictionaries in order to compare and contrast definitions. New vocabulary will range across many different concentrations.

GarageBand - Students will be introduced to the application GarageBand, it's used to create songs, radio shows, podcasts etc.

This class focuses on reading techniques which will be useful for all students through their academic career. Strategies for reading are important no matter what your age. Learning how to interpret and criticize readings is invaluable. Students will know that coming across unknown words is a chance for learning, not a chance for feeling like you don't know anything. Prior vocabulary knowledge is great, but for students who don't know, this is a time add to their list.

Students will be introduced to GarageBand which can be used in any class for a project. This could also be helpful for students who have a strong musical intelligence and like to write/record songs.

Our discussions about cliques will hopefully help students become more mindful of their actions towards others and more forgiving of others' actions.

We will start the class by defining cliques, this will lead into the hooks for the class. The video and song should be tied into our dicussion about cliques. After this, students will re-read the first chapter of the book to refresh their memory because this information will be very important for this lesson.

Students will be randomly grouped and brainstorm and discuss cliques within their own, classes/school/family. They will present their findings with the class. As a class, we will then make a master list. We will play the 'line game' about how cliques are grouped.

The rest of the class will be spent going over 'lies they tell you middle school'. They will write up their own list in addition to a list of things they heard about high school before they got here. We will discuss how this relates to their lives/enhances the book.

Where, What, Why, Hook, Tailor: Intrapersonal, Visual, Interpersonal, Kinesthetic, Musical, Verbal
Students will be using their novel for most of the research and also personal opinion. They will be in groups for discussion about cliques in class/school/home/and in the book. We will talk about their findings as a class.

Equip, Explore, Rethink, Tailors: Visual, Logical. Kinesthetic, Verbal, Musical, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal.
Students will be using GarageBand for their product. They will get the chance to ask the author one questions about her writing. Their radioshow will be graded mainly on completion because most of it is opinion based. There will be a checklist of GarageBand features that need to be incorporated into their show.

Evaluate, Tailors: Visual, Verbal, Logical, Musical, Kinesthetic, Interpersonal.
discuss why there are cliques on school what is their purpose? who do they help? who do they hurt? should we have them?
 * Content Notes**

Bowling for Soup - Girl All the Bad Guys Want 8'clock Monday night and I'm waiting, To finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me, Her name is Nona, she's a rocker with a nose ring She wears a 2 way, but I'm not quite sure what that means

And when she walks all the wind blows and the angels sing but she doesn't notice me.

Cause she's watchin wrestling, creamin over tough guys, listenin to rap metal, turntables in her eyes (chorus)

it's like a bad movie she's looking through me if you were me then you'd be screamin' someone shoot me, as I fail miserably tryin to get the girl all the bad guys want cause she's the girl all the bad guys want.

She likes the Godsmack and I like Agent Orange her c.d. changer's full of singers that are mad at their dads she said she'd like to score some reefer and a 40 she'll never know that I'm the best that she'll never have.

And when she walks all the wind blows and the angels sing but she'll never notice me

Cause she's watchin wrestlin, creamin over tough guys, listenin to rap metal, turntables in her eyes, she likes 'em with a mustache, race track, season pass, drivin' in a trans am. does a mullet make a man.

(chorus)

Cuz she's the girl all the bad guys want (repeat 3 times)

There she goes again with fishnets on, and dreadlocks in her hair she broke my heart, I want to be sedated, all I wanted was to see her naked

Now I'm watchin wrestling tryin to be a tough guy listenen to rap metal turntables in my eyes I can't grow a mustache and I ain't got no season pass all I gots a moped... (echo 2 times)

(chorus)

cuz she's the girl all the bad guys want (repeat 6 times) she's the girl all the bad guys want http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Girl-All-The-Bad-Guys-Want-lyrics-Bowling-for-Soup/05B78E2BD70597AE48256C21000A816F
