Honors 9- Today I went over the schedule for the rest of the quarter. Here it is for reference:

You need to be complete the book no later than Monday, March 2nd. Your “theme analysis” extended response will be due at this time.
We will review for the part two cumulative quiz Thursday, March 5th.
The cumulative quiz will be given on Friday, March 6th.
I will giving the quarter 4 writing assessment Monday, March 9th. You will get the whole class period on the 9th. It will be due the 10th.

We will then be watching the award wining film adaptation of the novel from the 10th through the 12th.

Theme Analysis:
The “theme analysis” extended response requires you to identify a theme and 4 quotes to support it. This writing needs to be in Type 3 format. It doesn’t need to be more than three paragraphs.
Challenge yourself to use multiple quotes per paragraph. Since you are only discussing one theme, this should be fairly simple. 
Make sure your theme is clearly identified! It is due March 2nd.

      Theme Analysis Fca’s:
1.Theme clearly identified
2.4 quotes from the text used to support ideas
3.Paragraphs are well organized for smooth readability

3rd Quarter Writing Assessment:
You have already completed part of this assignment.
You will be using the graphic organizer you used to analyze Atticus’ closing argument.
You will do the same thing with another famous speech, and then write an extended response comparing and contrasting the two speeches for effectiveness. This will be given on the 9th, due the 10th. 

English 10- Today we are sharing our fictional news articles and our classmates are evaluating them using a similar guide that I will use for your final projects. Note: Your final project is due March 6th. No exceptions. Remember, your final project needs to be typed and printed. Here is our computer lab schedule:

All classes will be in the 242 computer lab March 2 and 3. You won’t be able to print

I have rescheduled the library lab times: March 2 will be for 7th period.
   March 5 will be for 5th and 6th period. Printing available at these times.
