Blog for November 19th

Monday 11/19
The , the students in Communities at oshkosh north are currently wrapping up their energy unit. Monday they had some time to put the finishing touches to their flipped classrooms. The flipped classrooms are presentations done at the end of a unit, that explain what they have learned. After a little time for some last minute finalizations, the students ate popcorn while watching each others presentations. The students also had the privilege of listening to guest speaker  Ashley Shipman, from UW Madison. She works in admissions, and lead the students on to a informative talk, that just included many tips, and valuable information about getting into college. This was a very valuable presentation to the students. Many students, due to the presentation, now understand how important the work ethic and performance that occurs in the early years of high school are. It was a day mainly for listening and learning.
