All students who handed in the paragraph over "Coming of Age in the Dawnland" should have received two e-mails by now. The first told them that the paragraph was graded and ready to have students view comments. The second told them how to turn it in online to turnitin.com after revising the paragraph. The revised paragraph is due online to turnitin.com by 3:00 on Friday. Students with remaining questions should see me before/after school or during Advisory.
This week we will continue in our short excerpt from William Shakespeare's The Tempest. Students should be curious about how the play connects to anything that we have read so far in the unit. We will start the week with the opportunity to ask questions and wrap up with the Act I reading guide. We will then read and discuss the other excerpt from the play. We'll wrap up the week with a brief discussion and reflection on our six-week progress reports, time to finish the Act II reading guide, and time in class to revise and turn in their "Dawnland" paragraph.
Students who need additional time to work on a computer at school are welcome to come in to our classroom before/after school and during Advisory to use one of the available computers.
