English 10 A

We added the next two words to our list and had a quiz on all four words. Create pictures in your heads for each word so that they are easier to remember. Read to page 74 and be sure to post-it key quotes. Study for your comprehension test which is this Friday. Bring all the handouts you'll need for the test: literary must-haves, transitions, how to cite, writing a strong thesis, etc. Take home your blue folders and study your previous paragraphs.

Re-writes of short stories are now due. Be sure to submit your draft with the new version.

Come to the lecture theatre at lunch to hear slam poetry team: The Fugitives and if you have permission from your period 4 teacher, stay for the writing workshop. Bring pen and paper.

We practiced the what/so-what chart for  chapters 1-3.
