September 1 and 2

Freshmen: Today we introduced how we will do vocabulary this semester (see the blog entry) and discussed in-depth the three essential questions we focused on yesterday. You are to read 20 minutes tonight and Wednesday, and begin your vocab.

Sophomores: Today we introduced how we will do vocabulary this semester (see the blog entry), and began our first book, Life of Pi. We paid special attention to the author's note at the start of the text and discussed some issues that are applicable to what we are reading. Your homework is reading, vocab, and your essay.

CNF: Today we finished the intro to Blink and read the first chapter, which we will discuss next period. As you read, you are to take at least three notes (questions, comments, reflections, ideas, etc.) on the six sections - in other words, you will have 18 notes overall.
