What does it really mean to communicate?
Do you think body language is really that important? Read more about it. Or go back to read "Silent Language" in your workbook, pages 125-130.
When you've reviewed the words for the vocabulary quiz, go to quia to take it!

EQ: What does it really mean to communicate?
First, we'll read an article about studying FACES. "Face facts" describes various factors involved in studying facial expressions and using these studies to help sort truth from lies, protect our nation from terrorists, and provide information for even more research.
It begins on p. 352 in the textbook.
AS you read, ask yourself questions to check your understanding of what you've read. You should have 10 questions and 10 answers in your notebook by the end of the story. Here are a couple to get you started:
1. The writer has identified a group called "wizards". Why are they called that?
2. What factors show a person is lying?
3. What percentage of the time can Secret Service agents can identify truth from lie?
When you're finished, answer the 4 "Analyze" questions at the end, and do workbook pages 122, 123, and 124.
Don't forget to turn in your home reading (either in your notebook or drop into my box).
Check with quia.com for practice with the vocabulary words (competent, emphasis, emulate, enhance, precision, subtle, distortion, vary, visualize, unencumbered.)
These should be in your workbook with pictures by now.
