Homework for March 28th and 29th

We're drawing ever closer to Spring Break!  I don't know about all of you, but I'm certainly excited about sleeping in and enjoying a week off.  As we move that direction, remember to stay focused on your tasks.

AP English III:

You all got a big thing off of your plates today - your research papers.  As a reminder, those of you who did not submit papers today are losing points for the assignment being late.  Do your best to get the assignment turned in to me ASAP.  Don't let this get you off to a bad start for our last quarter.

In terms of homework for tonight, I'd like for you to read chapter twenty five - the last "chapter" of Invisible Man.  There is an Epilogue at the very end, but we'll read that together in class.  Next class we'll be preparing for our final exam on Invisible Man - a timed writing of a different sort.  The final exam will be on April 3rd and 4th. 

Lastly, I would like for all of you to review the instructions that I gave you on the final motif project.  We'll review this assignment much more thoroughly on Friday/Monday as well as select the motifs that you will all study.  May the odds be ever in your favor...

English I:

Tonight's homework requires that you complete the rough draft of your review of Romeo + Juliet.  The instructions sheet clearly outlines what you need to have in each area of your movie review and how to construct those elements.  This should be a three paragraph assignment.  Please follow the structure rules specifically, especially the word count.  Bring your rough draft with you to class on Friday/Monday for a completion grade.  Walk in with a complete draft and you will begin the quarter with a 100 homework grade.  Again, get off to a good start.  The final drafts of this assignment will not be due until after Spring Break.
