Monday, August 27

Freshmen: Today our focus was on responding to poetry using a method known as CQC (comment, question, connection). We read Stafford's "Traveling Through the Dark." Your homework is to read for 20 minutes, and be sure you are working on your Letter to the Editor, Great Thought assignment, and vocabulary.

Sophomores: Today we started Life of Pi, stressing the implications of the author's note. Check for an earlier blog entry that has the reading schedule. Please read a couple of chapters before Wednesday's class. Bring the creation story you found and bring it to class as well on Wednesday.

CNF: Today we focused primarily on the three tasks of Blink that Gladwell lays out in the introduction. We'll read the Introduction and Chapter One this week.
