English I Honors students worked on two motifs that appear throughout Romeo and Juliet: light/dark and fate. We’ll be looking for these things throughout the rest of the play.

English 8 began their pre-winter-break project: The Seven Habits of Successful Teens. Students will be responsible for a single habit and then present the habits to their peers. We began reading and outlining/summarizing today.

Homework

  • English 8: complete the article of the week.
  • English I Honors: 
    • read 2.3 for tomorrow;
    • complete the article of the week.
Class Notes

Notes for the day's classes are available here.

Please note that this is a composite file including notes from all classes, though occasionally it might only be one or two classes. I don't differentiate in the file; that is up to you to do.
