Hump Day Number Three

Students, today we did the following in class:

Ninth grade:
  • You will receive extra credit if you bring your textbook to class when I ask that you do so.
  • Summer reading projects are due this week!  Please see me at lunch with any questions.
  • Yearbook photos are tomorrow!
  • You worked on the puzzle from List #2 and will give that puzzle to me after we complete it tomorrow.
  • You received a new list - you will write sentences with the first six words from that list (detest, sympathize, blithe, tatter, straddle, wrench) as HOMEWORK, and bring those sentences to me in class tomorrow!
  • You received a copy of the story ""I Don't See George Anymore"; we will finish reading that story tomorrow.

Juniors:
  • I have Gulliver's Travels on sale for $5;
  • Your grade on your quote test may be low; not to worry; plenty of grades to come; keep working, and ask for help if needed;
  • We read yesterday's article from the New York Times on the working poor;
  • Please watch at least five minutes of President Obama's speech tomorrow night;
  • You took a vocabulary check ... just how eminent is Jennifer?
  • We began discussing and analyzing "MTPOD"; and
  • Annotations for "A Modest Proposal" are due tomorrow!
 Have a wondrous day!
