THAT was an interesting week...

Not that you guys are complaining though, right? :) Yeah, so last week was basically a wash regarding class schedule, etc. due to the rash of snow days and built-in off days. Hope you guys still enjoyed it all! I'm sure you did...

So...here are the latest updates regarding this next full (probably?) week:

**Check out the newly updated "weekly schedule" and "important dates" links to the right especially due to all of the days off as of late.

**Eng. 9a students: be prepared for TKMB Test #2 first thing Monday in class. Also be prepared to turn in your TKMB book and chapter packet! We'll continue of work with punctuation and spelling that day too...NO QUIZ. Finally, we'll be starting our reading/analysis of Romeo and Juliet on Tuesday of next week, so you plan to purchase your own copy of the text, I need $1 from you either on Monday or Tuesday at the latest. Oh, and we start our first official essay assignment on Monday as well. I know! A lot comin' at ya!

**Englih 9b students: your halfway-point-of-book "assignment" is still due this Monday. Be prepared to prove that you have half your book read, half of your plot summaries completed, and 3 of 6 characters taken care of in writing. We'll continue our work with spelling and capitalization on Monday as well...NO QUIZ.

**English 10a students: we will edit your Hamlet essay rough drafts in class on Monday like we would have done this past Thursday. THE FINAL DRAFT IS NOT DUE ON MONDAY BUT INSTEAD WEDNESDAY NOW. Please have a completed rough draft in hand on Monday so that we can go through the editing process in class! Also, we'll continue our work with capitalization on Monday...NO QUIZ. Finally, we'll be starting our next text, Tuesdays with Morrie, on Tuesday (haha...fitting, right? Considering the title?)...fyi.

Ok, I think that's it for now, all! Enjoy the weekend...and be prepared to get back to reality (and hard work) on Monday!
