Happy Thanksgiving!

It's already the holidays - can you believe it?  This is a very short, but important week.  So this will be a very short, but important, blog post.

Monday is a full day of school, but parent-teacher conferences run from 2:30-6:30.  I had my students analyze how they did for Term 1 and then set some goals for Term 2.  I'll bring this to the conferences for you to take with you.

Tuesday is a half day!   Students are released before 10:30 A.M. for the Thanksgiving holiday.  Hopefully everyone will get some much needed rest.  I did not give out Reading Logs for this week, and there won't be any for next week either!  This will give them a nice two-week break, but I still want them reading!!!!

So here's the plan for the upcoming week:

English 9

• Monday, 11/20 - 2nd hour - prepositions, then an activity for Act II, scene ii; 1st and 3rd Hours will continue reading Act II for scenes iii and iv
• Tuesday, 11/21 - all - watch Act II, scene iii and iv movie clips

English 10

• Monday, 11/20 - we'll finish watching the movie for "The Palace Thief"; possessive noun worksheet; we'll begin to create the Introduction and Conclusions for our 5-paragraph essay (they've already created the body).
• Tuesday, 11/21 - we'll finish creating the Introduction and Conclusion paragraphs for our 5-paragraph essay.

And that's it!  I hope to see many of you at conferences, and then I wish you many blessings for the Thanksgiving holiday.  If you're traveling, may you have safe travels, and I'll see everyone on the other side of the holiday break!  Felice Ringraziamento!
