Parent/Teacher Conference Week

Welcome to the first week of November and parent/teacher conference week!  This week's schedule is as follows:

• Monday  - regular school day
• Tuesday - regular school day
• Wednesday - parent/teacher conferences are from 12:00 - 7:15 in the high school gym and cafeteria; report cards will be available in the lobby.
• Thursday - no school for students; teacher professional development day
• Friday - regular school day

Thus, there is not a lot happening this week in English, but here's what I've got!

In English 11, I'm working on finishing up their grades for Term 1.  The test they took last week, along with the study guides are going to be on Term 2 because I have students who are not finished.  In the meantime, they are writing their own tale in the style of Geoffrey Chaucer, so it's in rhyming couplet poetic form!

In English 9, we started preparing for Romeo and Juliet.  We're still working on background information early this week, and then we'll be ready to start the text on Friday.  Last Tuesday I took many of my students to see the play at Wayne State, which was a lot of fun!  Here are some pictures I took from the day

I hope to see everyone at conferences this week!  Enjoy!
