LAST Weekend Update!

Hi, everyone. First, best of luck to you all during final exam week coming up. I know for you especially, juniors, that you probably feel all "tested" out already! Either way, go get 'em next week...again.

Final reminders for everyone...

English 9a: study, study, study! Remember, the best way to approach any large task like this is to break it down into manageable parts. In other words, hit a review topic or two per day/night in the days leading up to the exam. And then ideally, you leave the last night (Tuesday) for a brief review of ALL topics...a refresher if you will. Let me know if you have any questions, concerns, comments during this preparation process! Be reminded that you do have "facts" due the day of the exam as well! Finally, you'll have your REVIEW GAMES to play staring on Monday!

English 11b: you've got all of your Hiroshima essay items due on Monday (brainstorm, outline, edited rough draft, and final draft)...as well as your 15 pg. plot summaries for the text. Remember, the final draft should have a cover page, be typed/double-spaced/12 pts. font, and 2.5 pgs. of text. Other than that, remember that you've got "facts" due the day of your final exam as well!

That's it, guys. It was a PLEASURE working with you all this trimester. Thanks for the hard work. Let me know if you need anything at all this NEXT trimester too! You know where I am....
