Freshmen: Today we focused on leads, conclusions, and plans. There will be a quiz on leads on Thursday. Your homework is to write two separate leads for your essay, using two different techniques that we learned. The leads should be at least two paragraphs long. Read for 20 minutes Tuesday and Wednesday.
Sophomores: Today we began watching Cry, the Beloved Country in order to build background information on South Africa and the time period we are reading about. We are tracking observations, questions, and synthesis as we go, and you may end up using these ideas to supplement your ideas for your compare and contrast essays. Keep reading; we will have a seminar on chapters 11-17 next Monday.
CNF: We read chapter 1 from Freakonomics; 12 notes are due in preparation for the seminar on Thursday.
