Ninth graders had another super day. We honed your short answer writing skills and read more of A Lesson Before Dying. Good job. Don't worry - we will start having homework again real soon.
Juniors had a guest author/teacher today, Lacy Johnson, who gave First and Third Periods the following assignment:
A narrative of about 1,000 words describing a significant, transformative experience in your life. Please begin your paper somewhere in the middle of the experience (in medias res) and explain or show how that experience has shaped you (the realization) near the end of your narrative.
Sixth and Seventh Periods have the following assignment:
Describe one scene (could be up to ten minutes in a time span) from a significant or transformative experience in 250 or fewer words. Describe as many details as possible - remember it doesn't exist to your reader unless you write it.
Sixth and Seventh Periods have the following assignment:
