Now that you have had a bit of time off from your first test, it's time to get back to business. Here are some reminders for all of you as we move foward.
Freshman Focus
You have now completed the first draft of each part of your essay. What you need to do is to begin putting the two parts together with the feedback you've received from your peers. In class on Wednesday/Thursday we will be returning to the media center to finish our drafts. Make sure that no matter what, you are prepared to present your draft on Monday/Tuesday the 15th/16th as this will be the day that your essays will be collected.
AP English III
I hope that you all enjoyed the discussion today on art and culture in the 1920's. I was happy to see that many students who haven't participated that much began to open up and share to create knowledge in the room. Please continue to open up - it's more fun that way. For tonight, I would like for you to finish reading chapter one and two of The Great Gatsby. As you read, continue to annotate. Look especially at information for your front and back covers and continue to build on the ideas we've been discussing. Show me what you can come up with and be an active reader.
English IV
I was impressed with what you all were seeing in our reading circle today about Winston, Julia, their budding relationship, and the society in which they live. Tonight, I want you to finish reading chapter one of book two - continue adding to your notes and observations regarding our two characters and the questions I posed for you at the beginning of class. After you finish chapter one, please continue on to chapter two.
It would also be a good idea to review your new vocabulary words as these will be asked about soon on a quiz.
