Do you remember my ducks? Well, some of them got CPR and are slowly breathing on their own. A few are on life support, but all in all, the blood bath isn't quite as ugly as previously reported.

We're getting ready for our district speech contest. With 55 kids representing 98 "individuals), things are really (REALLY) crazy. But these kids are awesome. Eighteen groups will represent the GLR speech team tomorrow at Spencer. If you have time, come to the high school and be completely amazed at the commitment and ability of these wonderful students. I am awed by them.

In English 10 (1st Hour) we finished our product persuasion speeches. We'll be finishing Mythology vocabulary on Monday and take our test.

In American Literature (3rd and 4th hour) we worked on learning more about The Scarlet Letter. This great American novel is so relevant to today's society.

In Literature 9 we worked on our CLOSE for "The Scarlet Ibis".

Good luck to the athletes, wrestlers, and speech kids.
