Actually it's Wednesday as I sit here to post. I can't believe I'm still going. I really thought I would have collapsed by now, but somehow (Someone) is giving me the energy to continue with what I need to get done. At some point I will just pass out, but for now, I'm good.

In English 10 we reviewed subjects and predicates. It seems like this is something English teachers review and review and review. It seemed as you worked in groups that you have this down, or so I'm hoping. We then reviewed the material on a vocal personality. We will be taking a quiz and cleaning out our notebooks tomorrow. It's hard to believe we're already a few days into the second quarter.

American Literature today was just fun. We laughed a lot. We registered our nonfiction books on Moodle. We shared what each of us was reading, and hopefully we each have something we could pick out to follow. We then finished our discussion of Rhetorical Devices. On Thursday they will apply those elements, and on Friday it is a reading day.

Literature 9 is getting to the point that I really like - JFK's inauguration address. I don't know what I enjoy that speech so much, but I do. We will actually watch it tomorrow.

Hope everyone is having a good night's sleep. Hopefully I'll be able to crawl into bed sometime soon.
