First and sixth periods worked on the introduction to their ballad essay. We’ll be finishing up the project tomorrow, with the final draft due January 30.

Second period went over 2.2 — the famous balcony scene. We had written conversations to prepare us for group discussions about Romeo and Juliet as people — would we like to be friends with them? What type of people do they seem to be?

Seventh period continued with Hatchet.
