Week 15

We are so close to the end.  Keep up the hard work and pull through until the end!

Honors 10th World Lit
This week we're starting the last argument essay of the year as well as finishing up Oedipus and the Poisonwood Bible.  The two weeks when we come back are going to be filled with summative assessments.  Please use Thanksgiving Break to make sure that you are up to date and ready for the final countdown to Mid-Terms.

10th World Lit
Your Parallel Reading Book Review Assignment is due by Midnight on Friday 11/21!  Remember, you can turn it in late, with a -30 penalty up until the Monday after the break.  You can also negate that -30 if you turn in an Errand Pass on Monday, as per the syllabus.  Make sure you're meeting the standards of the rubric.  Check and double check you've answered all of the questions and have completely answered the questions.  Did you remember about the extra credit?  Check your Parallel Reading Assignment Packet!

Also, when we come back, we'll have our Oedipus Unit Test.  Check your MUB grade to see how much studying you have to do!  Did you take your Cornell Notes?  Are you using them to study EVERY DAY?  Do you need to go over Oedipus over the break?  The online textbook is linked on the Resources page.  Do you need to retake your Cornell Notes so you can turn those in on the day of the Test?

Yearbook
Every page assigned needs to be submitted before we leave for Winter Break in order to meet our Plant Deadline (it's over the break).  In class we discussed that the Green Deadline will count as your Midterm Exam this semester.  Make sure that you are done with everything you need to do on time.  Remember, you have one Year 2, two Lead Editors, and an adviser to help you make your deadline, but it's up to you to do the work!
