Freshmen: Today we focused on the reading skill of question-asking, particularly looking for disparities in what we read. We read an excellent descriptive essay by Barry Lopez titled "The Blue Mound People" - check it out if you can. We also looked at your letters to the editor - good luck, and let me know when you get published. Read for 20 minutes - The first two marking periods in Speak are due Monday; next Friday vocab chapter 7 is due.
Sophomores: Today we had good seminars on Siddhartha. You need The Diving Bell and the Butterfly tomorrow. Next Friday chapter 7 vocab is due.
CNF: We concluded our study of Hoop Dreams and looked at some pieces that updated us on Arthur and William, their successes and tragedies, since the film's release.
Basketball: We played a great game last night, and the coaches are really proud. We will practice until 5:30 tonight and end at 5 on Friday.
