Fourth period had a test on the parts of speech. They claim it was difficult; the results so far belie their claims.

First, second, and seventh periods all worked on their first poem for their poetry project portfolio. It was modeled on “Cat!”. As such, it was to include onomatopoeia and meter. (I added a few new pictures to the Classwork 2009/10 gallery.)

Homework

• First, second, and seventh: finish first draft of poem.
• Fourth period: read through chapter 4 of To Kill a Mockingbird.
