November 2

Sophomores: The 10% solution essay was due today, and we reflected on the process. We also discussed ideas present in your triple entry journal. Chapter 18 from The Power of One is due Monday.

Freshmen:We started our study of definition essays. We read the intro to the genre from Short Takes (pages 76 and 77) and talked about how words have both connotations and denotations. We also talked about the words others use to define us. We then read "The Handicap of Definition" from Short Takes. Chapter 2 from The Elements of Style is due Monday.

Basketball: Tryouts are Monday, until 5:30, at Sunnyside. Bring your eligibility cards.
