Update for Oct 23

Today we read until page 87 in the text. There were some discussions about the questions we have been doing in class and some additions to the ideas we've already had for question 7 and 9.

In addition I assigned question 8 from the list of Questions on the Text.

I also set a dead line for part two of the novel study as November 12, 2015. That will be the second half of the questions, second half of the vocabulary, the elements of the novel and the character sketches we will get done.

Ok, keep yourselves safe, see you Monday.

Update for Oct 14

We read ... we read until our eyeballs came out of our head ... not really.

We read to the end of Chapter 5 ... and we had fun.

We should be working our way through the Vocabulary list ... I'll make sure that the students know about the due date tomorrow.

Other than that, it's all good.

Oct 8

We got to reading today ... we were a little late, as the group let out late ...

in any case, we got to about page 32 in the text.

I mean ... that's all we could get done today ... it's all good.

Here's a puppy

Oct 5

We've moved on to our next unit, a novel study.

You should have a copy of the Unit Outline, and with that a series of questions that will be assigned after each day of reading.

Keep in mind that I will also be getting you to work on a vocabulary list and character sketches as well as a theme study and other literary terms.

First due date is October 14th. I'll post the picture of the sheet in the room today.

So far we've had questions 1, 3, 2 and 5 assigned for homework.
