Tough day! It's hard to come back for these two days. Everyone wants to be home - including me.

English 10: We finished our speeches of introduction (that's what we did Friday as well). I returned a few papers, but the rest will be returned tomorrow. We're going to watch "The Last Lecture" as a conclusion to our Introduction Unit.

American Government: Chapter 3 Test. I think most did well. They also turned in their notebooks.

Literature 9: They got their tests back. That took most of the class period. Then we introduced O. Henry. I hope to read "Gift of the Magi" tomorrow. It's a great Christmas story about the true meaning of giving.

American Literature: On Friday we took a quiz over Emerson, Thoreau, Douglass, and Lincoln. Tomorrow (Tuesday) our Book Trailors are due. I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone created.

One more day people, then freedom!
