 Hello! Here's what we're up to today:

• Thanks for your patience last week!
• Rearranging desks, and rearranging seating positions
• Checking in
• Revisiting Assignments 1, 2, 3 and 4, and Project 1
• If you're missing these assignments, it's not too late, but be warned: I'll likely start reaching out to parents soon. We're almost at the mid-term report card.
• Let's check in on Project 1, since most of it was done through a TOC. Where are we at, and what do we need?
• Reminder on plagiarism for Project 1, and its connection to In-Class Write 1 (see Daybook)

• It's worth 16 points now (still might be subject to change)
• Review Literary Terms
• Time to prepare notes
• Details on Project 2
• The instructions
• The rubric
• The speaking order
• How to take notes
• Discussion question: Do you think we live in more of a dystopia, or a utopia? See the video.
• Presentation on Chapters 1 and 2
• Freewrite
• Homework:
• Remember to hand in P1!
• Assignment 4 is up (four freewrites, due end of day tomorrow)
