Periods 1 and 3 Senior Comp:
1. Attendance and being on time are most important to your success in this course. I have given a photo copy of your attendance and tardiness to your counselors and track coordinator. Please come every day and be on time.
2. I will collect your reflection essays today. I will read them and return them to you so that you may reprint them next Wednesday when we return to the Library. If, by chance, the Vantage Lab becomes available earlier, you will input them there on the Vantage system.
3. In the event that the Senior Project pamphlets are not available, we will use the textbook already issued. If you took it home, be sure you have it with you.
Period 2, Honors 11Th Grade English using the AP curriculum:
1. Thank you for yesterday's perfect attendance in the Library.
2. If available, the Bedford Reader will be issued.
3. Be sure to bring the notes from yesterday's research on the "Iroquois Constitution" and "The Declaration of Independence." You will read these texts and annotate them on a note pad, not in the text. Work not finished in class will be finished as homework. We will discuss these works tomorrow.I will expect an essay comparing and contrasting the two works to be written in class on Monday.
4. I will pass out pages 4-8 of the logical fallacies handout for you to maintain in your binders until you will deal with them again in the Bedford Reader.
5. I will assign a review of figures of speech. You will be tested on these in the manner you experienced with me on the first two days of this semester. I hope you kept those old tests we used as practice sheets.
6. Time permitting, I will issue a vocabulary list for spelling and mastery of use. You do not "own" a word until you can use it correctly and appropriately in speaking and writing.
Periods 5 and 6, American Lit/Comp.
1. Dictation from The Memoirs of Cleopatra by Margaret George.
2. New "grammar in context" dictation assignment.
3. Review of your notes on Maya Angelou.
4. Reading of textual assignments on Maya Angelou.
5. Assignment of literary terms.
6. Vocabulary assignment.
