Freshmen: Today we looked at a couple of essays that had to do with spelling. The essential question we focused on is, Is your spelling ability a reflection of your intelligence, edicaction, desire, or something else (yes, I intentionally misspelled education - tell me you read that on Friday and you get 5 points extra credit). The article postulates that our spelling ability is in fact a reflection of our values - the desire to spell well is as important if not more so than our ability to spell well in the first place. Think about that. Read for 20 minutes; vocab is due Friday; typed draft of your essay due Monday.
Sophomores: Today we conducted a seminar on Life of Pi - you did very well. Bring the book again tomorrow. Vocab exam tomorrow; we will begin The Power of One on Monday.
CNF: We conducted another excellent seminar on Blink; show up tomorrow to see what else we'll do.
