Tuesday, January 29 and Wednesday, January 30


Freshmen: Today we introduced Poetry Out Loud. Follow the directions on the handout you were given. We also read several examples of essays that use definition as their primary mode. Read for 20 mintues Tuesday and Wednesday. Vocab Chapter 8 is due Thursday.

Sophomores: Today we studied The Hero's Adventure. Your homework is to write a short essay (say a page or two, typed and double-spaced) that summarizes and synthesizes the main ideas, particularly applying them to Oedipus and Oedipus the King. This is due on Monday, along with the think sheet. We also introduced Poetry Out Loud. Follow the directions on the handout you were given. Finish Oedipus Rex for Thursday, and vocab is due Friday.

CNF: Today we watched most of The Last Lecture, which can be found on youtube if you missed it. We will start up at the 56 minute mark on Thursday. Have the book with you that day.

Basketball: Great come-from-behind win against Juan Diego!
