Thursday 9/26: Homework

Block F: Today you spent a lot of class time responding to the text we are studying  ("St. Lucy's"). I will be looking over your work tonight and we will have a lively academic conversation tomorrow. In the meantime, use tonight to read your independent reading book and record your progress in your log.


Block A:
We won't have class tomorrow due to the pep rally. 
For Tuesday, please use the goat sheet to complete a Reading Response on David Sedaris' short story "Turbulance."

Block B:
We were missing a lot of students in class today--they were literally taking a hike! For those of you who were out, we spent some time talking about Alexie's poetry. We focused on "Why We Play Basketball." I've attached the annotations from class below. We started a writing assignment that will be due next week. If you were out today, please swing by and pick up a handout to get started.

Block C:

Read to page 98 in True Diary. Complete a "Diving into the Text" organizer.
