This is a link to the online Inflation Calculator I used to represent to students the purchasing power of $1.87 in 1905. It had the power of about 50 of our bucks. Feel free to use it to see how the other prices in the story correlate to our modern financial world. Just remember to set the starting year at 1905.
HW:
- Finish the story we began in class today, "Gift of the Magi." Be ready for a reading quiz tomorrow of the HW.
- Membean Common Words lists were distributed to each class. There's a lot of overlap, but each class got its own list.
- The Common Words Quiz will be on the Block Day meeting of classes this week, Weds or Thurs.
- Socratic Circle Discussion for real (summative) This Friday. I'm leading an MTSS Session this Weds on How To Write Good Questions, if you're curious/worried about drafting discussion questions.
