To prepare for Friday and Monday's classes please be sure that you have completed the following tasks. Be especially clear about the fact that all work will need to be submitted to me no later than 3:00 pm on Thursday the 17th. This is the last day of the quarter. Please use your Jupiter Grades login to see if you are missing assignments; if you are, ask if these assignments can be made up.

For our next class we will be looking at another short story. I would like for you to read Ha Jin's "A Contract" in our Perrine books -- there are no questions connected to the story, but be sure to annotate it heavily. Keep an eye out for irony and satire as Jin is pretty critical of the Chinese government, its agencies, and representatives of that power. Also, the majority of class will be spent working through Donne and Marvell, taking another look at those poems given our work with today's class would be productive.
Lastly, Mrs. Mausi (AP over English) was impressed with your poem dramatizations today. Mad props!
AP English III
Tonight your priority should be your websites. I hope that you are now at the point where you are revising your work, putting finishing touches on your site, and beginning to plan for your presentations. Next class the Guidance department will be coming in to speak with you all about registration for next year. Following that, we will go through some maintenance issues related to your websites -- If you have any questions related to websites you will want to ask them during Friday/Monday's class.
Also, don't forget that we will be starting our study of The Crucible on the 23rd and 24th of the month. Be sure that you have your copy of the text.

I would like for all of you to continue working on your essays for tonight's assignment. Remember that this will be one of your last major grades of the quarter and will create a large impact on your grade. Even if you are unable to finish the whole essay you should turn in a partial draft as that will earn you more points than no draft. On Friday/Monday we will spend our last day in our workshop mode and I will go over the rubric so that all of you understand how you will be graded in this assignment.

After our time in the lab you should have your resume finished and ready to submit for Monday's deadline. Also, be ready to teach your lesson! Remember to have a formal lesson plan which you can turn in to me as well as any needed materials. This is our last activity in the education unit and soon we will be moving on to a unit on cultural diversity and appreciation. Let me know if you need anything from me in completing your assignments.
