All Classes: Remember, you need to have 28 sessions of Reading Plus by Tuesday, Jan. 15th! There is no activity for Word of the Week this week, though we have a big one coming up next week! Be ready! MAKE SURE ALL OF YOUR WORDS ARE IN YOUR VOCAB JOURNALS! Don't be surprised if we don't check journals VERY SOON!
Periods 2, 5, and 6: Read chapters 5-7 of Their Eyes Were Watching God for next class. We will attempt to get caught up with the reading calendar by Monday. Remember that you need to do well on your tests to go on the Zora! field trip Feb 1st to Eatonville, FL (details about the trip will follow soon). Some of you already failed the first quiz, so get on the ball. You will need to have an average of 80% on all our assessments if you want to attend. If you need to see the reading calendar, click HERE. In addition, Natalie V. in second period found THIS GLOSSARY to help her understand some of the colloquialisms in the novel. It is organized by chapter and is fairly thorough. Thank you, Natalie V., for sharing it with us!
Periods 3 & 4: You need to finish your personal news story essays AND sign up for our Julius Caesar celebration a few posts below this one. In addition, we selected 1984 by George Orwell as our next novel, so you need to bring in $10 for your copy if you need us to order it for you. You also have the option to buy your own copy, or you can check one out from a library by searching destiny.dadeschools.net. You need the novel by Friday, Jan. 18th, as the first quiz will be on Tuesday, Jan. 22nd. We will collect money until Monday next week. Again, if you exhaust all of the aforementioned options, and you cannot afford a book, know that we have your back, just let us know!
