English I Honors students looked at their first formal poetic form, the villanelle. We came up with a few rules for villanelles after looking at three of them, including a poem we’d already explored.

English 8 students read chapter 6 of Nightjohn and began reviewing for the coming test this week on effective readers’ skills, the novel, and our stems.

Homework

• English 8: complete the work begun in class.
• English I Honors: continue working on the short story project, due Wednesday.
