ELA Class--Q3 Week 1: This Week @ KTC

Quarter 3 Week 1--WWYD--What Would You Do?

This Week @ KTC 

This week at KTC, we are havingt the students think through a real life situation and respond to us.  I have given them a situation and I want them to think about what they would do.  They are taking this instance and responding to it via Google Drive and sharing their thoughts with myself and others.  The response has been quite interesting.  We are noticing that there are some misconceptions about the world of work that our students need helping working through.  The example is below.

Situation: 

You have a job.  In your opinion, you have been a good worker and feel that you work hard every time you come to work.  You've been working for less than six months and you would like a raise.

Questions for Students: 

In your opinion, should you get one?  Yes or no and why?

What might be some other information that you don't yet know that could affect whether you get the raise or not?

What questions might you need to ask or information you need to know before asking your boss for the raise?
