Here's a quick look at the week ahead:
Vocabulary: This week we will complete activities to review words from units 1-6, culminating in a review test on Friday.
A. P. Test Prep: On Monday we will complete our standard multiple choice preparation, and on Wednesday we will complete the fourth timed writing of the semester with a released A.P. prompt.
Multi-Genre Research Projects: Tuesday and Thursday will be our third and fourth of four in-class workdays for MGRPs. These will, again, provide an excellent opportunity for you to ask questions and get feedback or guidance from me.
The Things They Carried: This week we will continue to spend time discussing and reading Tim O'Brien's Vietnam War novel. Please read according to the schedule on our syllabus, posted in class, and here:
