Final Week of Term 1

Here we are, at the end of Term 1: let the panic commence!  This is when everyone realizes that everything has to be taken care of, and they all show up at my door.  As long as they don't wait until after this week, I'll deal with it!

I've been grading papers all weekend (speaking of panic) and so this is going to be short and sweet.  Last week English 9 finished the pre-reading activities for Romeo and Juliet, and we're ready to move into the text.  English 10 finished the first part of "The Palace Thief" and finished an analytical paragraph (typed!), and now we're ready to move through the next third of the text.  Here's the schedule for the week, to the best of my ability:

English 9

• Monday, 10/30 - we'll hand back papers; go over reading log #8; we'll begin reading Act I, scene i and work on the study guide, notes, and vocabulary packet.
• Tuesday, 10/31 - academic advisory - prepositions; continue reading Act I, hopefully getting into scene ii
• Wednesday, 11/1 - NO SCHOOL!
• Thursday, 11/2 - PSAT Advisory - TURN IN READING LOG #8; prepositions; continue Act I
• Friday, 11/3 - get reading log #9; silent reading/library day

English 10

• Monday, 10/30 - we'll hand back papers; go over reading log #8; we'll read and annotate pp. 175-82 and work on the study guide.
• Tuesday, 10/31 - academic advisory - TURN IN ANALYTICAL PARAGRAPH #1 (PRINTED); nouns; discuss pp. 175-82; read and annotate pp. 182-91 for Thursday and work on the study guide.
• Wednesday, 11/1 - NO SCHOOL!
• Thursday, 11/2 - PSAT Advisory - TURN IN READING LOG #8; nouns; discuss pp. 182-91; read and annotate pp. 191-95 for Monday and work on study guide.
• Friday, 11/3 - get reading log #9; silent reading/library day

There's the plan.   As things change I'll update the online calendar.  Have a great week. Ciao!
