Ninth graders - what can I say? I love you guys, but we didn't have our best day today - BINGO ran amuck! I am sure that you will redeem yourself on Monday's test. You will need to know ALL of the words on your K Boy Vocabulary sheet. I will copy the sheet onto a blog entry when I get home this evening so that you will have the words just in case. STUDY YOUR WORDS!!!!!
Juniors wrote a synthesis essay. Monday (May 7th) you will write a persuasive essay, and Tuesday-Wednesday (May 8th-9th) you will complete a College Board M/C style packet. We will review on Thursday (May 10th) and probably on Friday (May 11th).
FYI - several of you have asked me about recommendations for next year. I honestly don't know what next year will be like, but I suspect that I will have my hands full. I also suspect that communicating about recommendations via e-mail could prove to be problematic. Having said that, if you would like me to write you a recommendation, please e-mail me next fall. I cannot make any promises at all; I would be happy to consider your requests, however, only after I scope out what my responsibilities will be at my new school. I will also not write any recommendations over the summer. I tried that one summer, only to see my time off gobbled up by recs and other stuff.
Have a great weekend!
