Freshmen: Today we made a slight tweak to the Prayer and Great Thoughts assignment and also reassigned the Letter to the Editor for quarter two. See the posts on today's blog about those assignments. We also began the novel Speak today. You need to read The First Marking Period (approximately the first 46 pages) for Monday. Also, by the start of class on Monday, you need to have a 1/2 to 1 page reaction to what we have read. This should be a short essay that focuses on what you were thinking about or feeling while reading. It may include some questions, ideas, observations, or comments, ranging on everything from style to plot to characters. On Monday we will have what is called a Socratic Seminar as we discuss the first part of the book, and your reaction will help you prepare for it.
Sophomores: Today we focused on Geel Piet and what he believes. Check the reading schedule, and keep working on your 3EJ, reflections, and Echoes assignment. I will collect your Echoes assignment; you should have three entries for Life of Pi and two for The Power of One.
CNF: Today we began Chapter 1 from Freakonomics.
