English 8 Strategies students had their weekly Friday writing session. We’re finishing up our argumentative writing review and will begin our ACT-Aspire test preparation shortly.

Fourth period and sixth period English I Honors students finished up different jig saw activities as they began two new units.

Homework

• English I Honors: 
  • fourth period:
    • read through chapter two of Lord of the Flies by Tuesday;
    • look for vocabulary words as you read (words are available at the Moodle site, and we’ll be learning how we’ll use them them Monday).
  • sixth period:
    • complete the assessment of the mob psychology piece by this evening (more likely tomorrow morning, for I will not stay up until midnight to switch it over).
    • complete the final writing assignment on the conch shell by Monday. (All materials at the Moodle site.)
