February+6+-10

This week we are finishing Act 2. Students will turn in a summary of scenes 4, 5, & 6. Then we will be doing an activity called “Snapshot” with Act 3 scene 1 and performing those on Friday. Students who know they will be gone Friday need to pair with others in class to form a group the will perform on Monday. Friday we will have a vocabulary quiz.

If you are having trouble getting on to Powerschool to check your student’s grades, call the office at 324-2500 and asked them for assistance. Also, please feel free to email me for grades or any questions you may have.

Extra Credit: Throughout the semester, students can earn extra credit by bringing in something they have written and discussing with me how they would like to revise it. After revising, bring in both the draft and revision for 10pts extra credit. (Poetry, Book Review, Memoir, songs, short story…)
