Mostly Monday

Block A: I hope you had a great time at grad skate today! We will be working on both of your ongoing project tomorrow - presentations start on Dec 3 - make sure you sign up for your poem before you get started - it is first come, first serve. We'll talk deadlines for your poetry projects as well.

Block C: I hope you enjoyed listening to some poets read their own work today in class. The intention of the day was to get you thinking about the sound of a poem and how the human voice can add so much meaning - and how certain poetic devices can play with the sounds in our ears. Your ticket out the door was to complete the react in writing - if you did so - there is no homework tonight!

Block D: Today was a triple ELO day. We reinforced and practiced using THIEVES, and we learned about 2-column notes - in addition to learning how to read smarter using a text coding strategy! Phew! So much good work in class today! We will continue tomorrow - with you practicing the text coding on your own. No homework tonight!
