Welcome back from the long weekend.  I hope you all are in the homecoming spirit and are dressing up for the spirit days this week.  I’ll try to join you when I can.  I could not do camo day today because I don’t have any camoflauge.

HS 101:

  • Ms. Wood talked about the topic of “Citizenship.”  Are you doing your part?

AR PROJECT:

  • We went over the Accelerated Reader Project for the first 9 weeks period which is due on October 19th.  I hope you have been reading your books and getting ready.
  • You have four main parts:
  1. Read the book and pass the AR test this 9 weeks.
  2. Create a movie poster for your book.
  3. Create an outline of your book covering the required topics. Here is a link to the outline format I gave out in class today. ar-format.doc
  4. Give an oral presentation about your book that encourages your classmates to read your book.

GRAMMAR:

  • We did not do well on our pronoun test last week.  Obviously, some information fell through the cracks.
  • We will be revisiting this topic this week to try to correct that.

HOMEWORK: 

  • Worksheet #2 in pronoun packet from class.
