English 8 Strategies students began the final push in our comprehensive informational text project about earthquakes. We worked in the lab, incorporating the new Schaffer chunks we’ve been creating in class. We’ll be in the lab one more day (tomorrow) to finish it up.

English I Honors students performed their cut versions of three scenes from Romeo and Juliet: 3.2, 3.3, and 3.5. We’ll be continuing this tomorrow, finishing up with scene five, when it all falls apart.

Homework

• English I Honors: 
  • complete the paraphrase work from the Romeo and Juliet study guide (3.3);
  • continue working on the “Decoration Day” project, which will be due online this Friday.
