Sept 23, 2021

 Hello! Sorry I can't be there today. Here's what we're up to today:

English 8

  • Use today to complete your Project 1 paragraph, following the Structure of a Paragraph document. Please note that I've also updated the assignment page to include the Academic Writing Rubric.
  • Note that the project is now due on Tuesday, so we'll spend Monday checking in on your work. Please come with a rough draft done.
  • You'll be sent home with the novel Strangers, which we'll start on Tuesday (the first two chapters). If you're someone who likes to read ahead, go for it!

English 9

  • Please use today to prepare for your Project 1 paragraph, following the Structure of a Paragraph document. Please note that I've also updated the assignment page to include the Academic Writing Rubric.
  • By Monday, please come to class with an answer written down for these questions:
    • What three texts do you want to use?
    • What might a thematic statement be that you can use that connects all of them?
    • What specific references (quote) support that statement?
  • On Monday, I'll review paragraph structure with you, and show you an example that would work well. I'll also distribute The Hate U Give, and we'll start getting ready for the novel study.
