January 2, 2018  The last of the Egypt projects and plays were presented
                            if not done so before the winter break.  When all presentations were done,
                            Unit 3 Section 1 The First Israelites was started.
                            We began with vocabulary front loading.

January 3, 2018  Vocabulary front load continues.  When finished,
                            students took Cornell Notes on vocabulary words that would be on the quiz.

January 4, 2018  When students finished Cornell Notes on the vocabulary, we proceeded
                            to information on the history of ancient Israelites.  The information is also
                            recorded as Cornell Notes.  Students complete the notes section in class.
                            The question and summary section is done as homework.
